The Industry is an independent, artist-driven, multidisciplinary opera company creating experimental productions that expand the definition of opera and new music. Through ambitious interdisciplinary collaborations in new contexts, we produce works that defy boundaries and inspire new audiences for the art form. We see our role in the music community as both providing a platform for large-scale artistic experiments that provoke questions and dialogue, and serving as an incubator for emerging American composers, musical talent, and artists predominantly based in Los Angeles County. The Industry’s mission-driven goal is to make opera for everyone.
Description
The Industry’s Listening Parties are a new series featuring artists as they present live and recorded work, discussing their inspirations in different models of opera. Composer Veronika Krausas (Hopscotch, Ghost Opera, The Mortal Thoughts of Lady Macbeth) directs, composes for, and produces multi-media events that incorporate her works with dance, acrobatics, and video. Here, she curates an evening of her past and current productions, featuring live performances and archival footage of projects influenced by tarot, circus arts, Shakespeare, and the ghost realm.
This program is made possible with support from Amphion Foundation, City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, and New Music USA.
