Canadian-born librettist and filmmaker in New York’s scene
A new opera by Missy Mazzoli and Royce Vavrek, staged by Tom Morris for Scottish Opera and Opera Ventures, uses Kafka’s fable to explore how a carnival’s ‘galloping cure’ exposes a town to pain’s true cost. Cast features Daniela Mack, Justin Austin, and Susan Bullock; staging blends spectacle with biting social critique.
