Beginning
the opera

Listen to the Midi

music: Katya Pine  libretto: Germaine Shames

In the near future, in a world where people are divided into "essentials" and "non-essentials," and their lives governed

by a faceless virtual regime, two would-be lovers meet — only to be forced into lockdown by an invisible scourge.

 

In the vein of Orwell's 1984, "Beginning" is a story of attraction amid isolation, of freedom in captivity, and ultimately of resilience.
