M’dea Undone; music by John Harris , libretto by Marjorie Chan, opened in the Holcim Gallery at the Evergreen Brickworks last night in a production by Tim Albery.  My review, still a WIP, will appear in Opera Canada in due course though it has triggered some more general thoughts about “new opera” that I might explore here.  It’s worth seeing just to experience the unconventional performance space.  There are three more performances tonight, tomorrow and Friday.  Here’s a photograph.
