Opera to the People
Opera to the People is an attempt to renegotiate the temporality, scale, proximity, and accessibility of operatic spectacle. In collaboration with bodies of water, we create a contemporary musical piece, accessible to everyone. We want to challenge the classist nature of opera as an institution and point out the political potential of opera as a form. The operatic voice is powerful. It can be heard even by those who didn't ask for it.
