Five Ways to Die
Five Ways to Die was written and composed by artists in Experiments in Opera’s critically-acclaimed Writers’ Room, a program for composers and librettists that challenges the precedent of single authorship. Characters in these uproarious and wild stories–brunching assassins, revolutionary rats, a mom and daughter on a never-ending trip to the mall–die in a multitude of ways-by poison, drowning, or plague, but they do so with a kind of grace and abandon that you could only find at the opera.
