Lali and Beng are being held captive. No one knows where they have been taken or if they are alive. All they have is each other. No One is Forgotten: An Immersive Opera Drama is a work-in-progress that experiments with psycho-acoustic and immersive sound design, along with actors, opera singers, cello, and theatrical foley to create a sound world which places audiences within the confines of a journalist and aid worker held hostage. Co-composed by Paola Prestini and Sxip Shirey with a story and libretto adapted by Winter Miller, based on her play. Free tickets required.
Following the work-in-progress presentation of No One is Forgotten, this public conversation with Eliza Griswold, Director of the Program in Journalism, and Professor of Creative Writing Aleksandar Hemon will interrogate the relationship between artists and journalists, how their word impacts or fortifies each other, and how both professions often live within one person. In collaboration with the Program in Journalism and generously supported by a Humanities Council Magic Grant for Innovation.
