Channeling Siddhartha, a 1922 novel by Herman Hesse, is a new experimental opera by American composer Christopher Theoganidis, and Alabama poet | librettist Melissa Studdard, with direction by visual artist Anne Patterson, video projection by artist and longtime glo collaborator Adam Larsen. We deeply grateful to Maestro Robert Spano, music conductor laureate of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, for the invitation to join the team. Positioning shape shifting as the choreographic language’s central point, social practice choreographer lauri stallings creates movement that charts the slow ascent of glo moving artists Noëlle Dave’, Mary Jane Pennington, and Laila Rosen, and a large choir of singers, feeling, and enduring, from the forest and the soil to the river. Enacting a sustaining loop of breath, sculptural forms, and flocking pattern of birds that thwart perspective and seem to tilt our sense of the line between tint and sky, stage and audience.
All are welcome! Come by, be part of the soft structures as lauri and glo moving artists
We look forward to moving with you in Goodson!
Always, always, free and public.
