Escape Room
Our annual Opera Student Composer Collective will kick off activities in January 2021. Following the success of the dramatic Massey Murder last season, we will turn to comedy with Escape Room; an intriguing scenario of characters trapped in a darkened room with no memory of how they got there. We’re excited to be choosing this season’s composers and working with them throughout the autumn in our usual process of composition and dramaturgy.
