Embark on a celestial journey with Sanctuary & Storm, an award-winning opera by composer Tawnie Olson and librettist Roberta Barker. This immersive performance features the powerful confrontation between medieval luminaries, Hildegard of Bingen and Eleanor of Aquitaine, and unveils a timely discourse on power, respect, and liberation. Guided by the ethereal Angel of History, the opera explores the cyclical dance of history and the shared struggle towards a common goal. Making its world premiere at IndieFest 2023, this innovative collaboration with re:Naissance Opera, Vancouver Opera, and the H.R MacMillan Space Centre promises an unforgettable operatic experience.
