About the Event

Illuminating The Shining - Love, Sacrifice & Ghosts...?

Join Opera Parallèle as we put Stephen King's The Shining under the spotlight. We'll take a walk down the corridors of The Overlook Hotel with expert panelists to explore the psychology of King's famous characters and uncover the lesser known themes of love, sacrifice and generational ties explored in this work. What is the enduring appeal of this story? How much of King's work is autobiographical? Why do we crave horror? How does opera best shed new light on these universal themes? Join us to find out more about this classic novel before seeing it live on stage this June. This event will also include a sneak peek performance from OP’s upcoming production with soprano Kearstin Piper Brown (playing Wendy Torrance) and pianist Kevin Korth. This event is part of OP's 'Bullhorn' community programs.
