In a Mirror, Darkly
Composer:Christopher Weiss
Librettist:S. O'Duinn Magee
Synopsis
Three artists, three eras, three locales – Camelot in the medieval period, then Paris in the 1890s, then Manhattan in the post-war 1940s.

The opera written by Mags and Christopher consists of three one-act stories. Each act tells the story of an artist who also happens to be a woman. Elaine in Act I is a Weaver; Elaine in Act II is a Painter; and Elaine in Act III is an Actor. Each woman wants the freedom to create, but each is stymied by gender stereotypes and restrictions.

The performance moves swiftly through one artist's story, then the next, then the next – with the final explosive quartet of Act III followed by a shattering denouement.
