Persian-American poet and scholar Fatemeh Keshavarz joins pianist and composer Adrienne Torf come together to make a new piece of opera-theater that fuses Faure’s Requiem, jazz elements, and Brechtian theatrical traditions in a powerful contemplation of the human experiences contained in “female incarceration in America.” This extended poem-opera sheds light on the lives and resilience of women in the U.S. prison system, their hopes, dreams, fears, and day to day experiences, offering a voice to a population often overlooked. Elizabeth Mondragon, Carly Ozard, Shana Oshiro, Louisa Wacott, Melissa Wimbish, and Judy Yannini join the composer herself, leading a Weill-esque instrumental ensemble from the piano, to animate the important original work.
