thingNY – 3 Operas in April! Learn how you can support.
Filed under Events
On April 6-8, thingNY will perform three new operas at a renovated space in Long Island City. First the underperformed gem of 1970s avant-garde Un Jour Come Un Autre by Slovenian composer Vinko Globokar – whose account of a tortured woman during the French-Algerian War brings to mind unfortunate parallels to political repression and prisoner torture still around today. Then, after a two-year hiatus, ADDDDDDDDD returns to New York. Called “rapid-fire… pulseracing… and all consuming” by NewMusicBox, thingNY’s first collaboratively composed opera about excess comes home to Queens. Finally, Jeff Young and Paul Pinto present the New York premiere of their verbose mobile opera about immigration, Jeff Young and Paul Pinto, Patriots, Run for Public Office on a Platform of Swift and Righteous Immigration Reform, Lots of Jobs, and a Healthy Environment.
