Additional Information

'Opera for the Unknown Woman' is a contemporary opera, created by Melanie Wilson (UK) with co-composer Katarina Glowicka (PL). It is an epic science-fiction dream of Earth in the 21st and 22nd centuries, seen through the eyes of its women and visitors from the far future, fusing contemporary classical and electronic music, choral singing, film and choreography.

The project was presented at Warwick Arts Centre, The Festival of the Voice at Wales Millenium Centre, Platform Theatre London and The Lawrence Batley Theatre in the Yorkshire International Festival in June 2016.

The project was produced by Louise Blackwell at Fuel.
