About the production

The Soldier’s Tale — Stravinsky

A soldier makes a dangerous bargain with the Devil in Stravinsky’s genre-defying masterpiece. A dazzling fusion of music, theater, dance, and storytelling, this darkly comic, haunting, and exhilarating theatrical work asks what we are willing to sacrifice—and what we might lose in the bargain.

Scalia/Ginsburg — Wang

Two brilliant legal minds. Two very different philosophies. One extraordinary friendship. Derrick Wang’s delightful opera Scalia/Ginsburg brings Justices Antonin Scalia and Ruth Bader Ginsburg together in a witty, affectionate, and surprisingly moving celebration of disagreement, friendship, and the power of ideas.

Approximate runtime: 3 hours, including one 20-minute intermission.
