A. Sokolovic / B. Bartók

Manitoba Underground Opera, 2021

This unique production combined Svadba and Bluebeard’s castle as a double bill exploring one woman’s regret over entering an abusive marriage. Judith performed in person against the backdrop of an otherwise pre-recorded cast as she puzzled out how she’d arrived at the present moment of her life.

Direction, Design and Video: Sarah Jane Pelzer

Maestro: Kimberly Bartzac
