Now Eleanor's Idea (Parts I&II and III&IV on alternate nights
Composer:Robert Ashley
Librettist:Robert Ashley
Synopsis
Robert Ashley's NOW ELEANOR'S IDEA is a quartet of short operas based on the notion of a sequence of events seen from four, different points of view. At the same time, each opera is an allegory, like Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, for an individual's self-realization within the context of a major “religion” found in the United States. Improvement takes its imagery and plot from Judaism, Foreign Experiences from Pentecostal Evangelism, eL/Aficionado from “corporate mysticism,” and Now Eleanor's Idea from (Spanish) Catholicism.
