DESCRIPTION:A peek into an opera-in-the-making\n\nFor this first performanc
	e\, we present the first part of my music theater piece\nTales and Mutabil
	ity: Prologue\, Scene 1\, and Intermezzo.\n\nThe piece is a music theatre 
	work for three performers—a singer (The Seer)\, an\nactor (The Pirate Prin
	cess)\, and a dancer (The Trickster)—and six musicians.\nEach character ha
	s their own artistic language: voice\, text\, or movement.\n\nIn this exce
	rpt\, the audience is introduced to the three characters and the\nworld th
	ey inhabit. At first\, they exist separately\, each within their own\ndisc
	ipline. The Seer sings the future\, the Pirate Princess collects stories\,
	 and\nthe Trickster moves between worlds. A central conflict emerges when 
	the Pirate\nPrincess steals the Seer’s voice\, setting the story in motion
	.\n\nThe performance combines live music\, voice\, movement\, and cassette
	 tapes\, which\nplay an important role both musically and visually. The in
	termezzo begins the\ntransformation of the characters\, as boundaries betw
	een their disciplines start\nto shift.\n\nWe will start with ca. 25-30 min
	utes of music/performance\, followed by a Q&A in\nwhich we talk more about
	 the project and the thoughts behind it.\n\n-Repertoire by Wilma Pistorius
