Opera 5 | Come Closer
Join Opera 5 for the world premiere of Come Closer – a new Canadian opera by composer Ryan Trew and librettist Rachel Krehm based on Rachel’s experience of losing her sister Elizabeth to addiction. Full of nostalgia, joy, connection, and reflection, Come Closer follows Big Sister through a series of waking dreams sparked by the poetry of her late Little Sister. As Big Sister reads, she explores the past and her mind tries to make sense of who her sister was, their relationship from innocent childhood to a more fractured adolescence, what happened, and how to continue forward.
