The Other Wise Man
Composer:Damjan Rakonjac
Librettist:David Wisehart
Synopsis
When Artaban, a rich Persian Magi, sees a sign in the heavens, he sets out to join the three wise men in Babylon and travel with them to greet the newborn King of the Hebrews. Pausing to help a dying widow by the side of the road, he misses his caravan and must embark on his pilgrimage alone—a lifelong journey that will lead him, through trials and tribulations, from false hopes to true wisdom.
