Experiments in Opera presents an orchestral workshop performance of the five operas that together tell a story about 'five ways to die.' These works have been developed in the EiO Writers' Room project and will be premiered in spring 2024. This performance will include singers and a chamber ensemble in full readings of the works following two days of rehearsals at the Harlem School of the Arts.
