The Yellow Wallpaper
Based on Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s haunting short story, this new opera by Brooke deRosa and Diana Farrell follows a woman whose isolation and confinement begin to blur the boundaries between reality and the imagination. Dark, atmospheric, and psychologically intimate, it explores themes of mental confinement, autonomy, and the consequences of a society that refuses to listen.
Gunfight at the Not-So-OK Saloon
This fast-paced musical comedy in the spirit of Gilbert & Sullivan is set against the colorful backdrop of the Old West. Packed with witty lyrics, larger-than-life characters, and plenty of theatrical absurdity, the show puts a comic spin on the classic Western. It premiered at the 2019 Hollywood Fringe Festival, where its sold-out run earned the "Pick of the Fringe" and the "Encore Producers’ Award."
Does Not Compute
This comedic opera explores the unpredictable—and sometimes absurd—possibilities of a world where humans and AI collide. In this show, humans and robots attempt to understand one another. Will there be a robot uprising? Can robots be taught to feel empathy? And, perhaps most importantly, can a machine learn how to love? With wit, humor, and a playful approach, the show invites audiences to consider what it means to be human in an increasingly technological world.
The Monkey's Paw
Based on W. W. Jacobs’ classic supernatural short story, this one-act opera follows a family whose encounter with a mysterious, magical talisman sets in motion a series of increasingly unsettling events, forcing them to confront the consequences of getting exactly what they wish for.
