Event Details

Deseret Experimental Opera presents And you ghosts rise blue, an im/material opera in three acts by Interdisciplinary Arts Collective. Join us in the Masonic Temple on June 23-25 for an evening of movement, sound, and light as we open a rift in the space-time continuum and call in voices past and future, real and unreal. The voices – sounding alongside a collaborative collective of dancers, musicians, poets, actors, and visual artists – form a ghostly chorus with whom we sing of the ephemeral, the infinite, and the im/possible.
