By: BWW News Desk Jun. 06, 2013
Southern California Lyric Theater and Alison Eliel Kalmus present a World Premiere of an Award winning, critically acclaimed new work, ÆSOPERA, featuring music by Jonathan Price and libretti by Jeff Goode, Jan Michael Alejandro and The Composer.
The Hollywood Fringe production will include music direction by Leonardo Sciolis (Hannah Yi Hellems), stage direction by Alison Eliel Kalmus & Kirk Arnold Smith and technical direction by Chad Parker.
Tragedy strikes and comedy ensues when a young Queen learns that with great power comes great controversy. A poor fisherman is granted three wishes, but that may not be enough for two daughters. A lion sacrifices his claws for love. An inventor tries to outwit fate, and amphibian voters elect themselves a carnivorous queen! With modern flair, these lush and lyrical mini-operas take inspiration from Aesop's classic fables of human nature's essential truths.Hollywood Fringe Festival Box Office.
