A WORLD PREMIERE PRODUCED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH NEW GEORGES
WORDS BY KATE SCELSA
MUSIC BY ROBERT M. JOHANSON
DIRECTED BY MORGAN GREEN

June 4–23, 2024

The early 20th century queer mystic and artist Hilma af Klint channeled hundreds of paintings through messages from otherworldly forces, hoping to communicate the mysteries of the universe. Only recently rediscovered and hailed as one of the first-ever abstract artists, she worked in obscurity during a time that was not yet ready to receive her message. This contemporary opera – with a score that mixes genres including opera, rock, pop, and musical theater– wrestles with the hubris and humility that fueled one woman’s spiritual quest.
