A Part / A Part Two

▷ documentation

An opera which revolves around the secret, unspoken and hidden, and to be included or excluded. 

The music, choreography and fragmentary libretto form an investigation of an invisible organisation, its hierarchy and underlying structure.

Central in the work is the position of the stage with the audience facing each other and the dancer, musicians and singer surrounding the audience.

A Part is the original opera and
A Part Two is a reconfiguration
