David Chesky's The Pig, The Farmer, and The Artist (Opera) A biting satire on our contemporary world. It attacks our present-day cultural malaise tangentially, making use of "the pig" allegorically, and, in doing so, mocks and pokes cruel fun at the inverted values of our materialistic society. In the tradition of Gulliver's Travels, the composer has attempted to break through our world's impoverished consciousness and lay bare society's frantic but ultimately empty pursuit at meaning. Ellen Stewart Theater at LA MAMA, 66-68 East 4th Street Admission: $15; purchase tickets at www.fringenyc.org. For more info: 212-586-7799 Cast of 10 singers with a 10-piece chamber orchestra. |
