Opera to go 2008

Presented by Tapestry in Association with Harbourfront Centre’s World Stage 2008

7 short operas including a Bravo!FACT film have their world premiere at the Enwave Theatre in February as part of Harbourfront Centre’s World Stage 2008. Tapestry’s fourth installment of Opera to Go explores the world we live in (at its best and worst)! Crossing disciplines, the programme includes electronic music, video and puppetry. An outstanding group of writers and composers bring the changing face of opera to an array of contemporary stories.
