Project [BLANK] continues its tradition as San Diego’s most innovative producer of opera, with a new production that busts open the operatic form and scatters its pieces throughout a public park. PARK OPERA is a one-of-a-kind interdisciplinary arts experience, free and open to the public. Staged outdoors in a public park, audiences receive a map and follow a wandering course through a landscape filled with music, art, and movement. Listeners of all ages will discover unexpected delights as they explore the park, igniting the imagination, activating the senses, and encouraging us to become “all ears.” In the process, we all can gain a deeper appreciation for our urban natural spaces, and consider the impact our presence leaves on our beautiful landscape. PARK OPERA was conceived by composer Wojtek Blecharz, and has been performed in public parks in Poland, Germany, and Austria. Project [BLANK] is excited to bring this new work to San Diego for its U.S. Premiere. Visit: https://www.projectblanksd.org/park-opera Project BLANK on Instagram / Facebook
