Uprising - Opera Zuid

Muziek

No Dutch Required

Uprising is about the uprising of young people for climate action, for change and their plea for a better world. The opera tells the story of a mother and daughter who are diametrically opposed to each other, and shows how social tensions affect personal relationships. It is a deeply human story about listening, clashing and living together.

Directed by Gable Roelofsen and Romy Roelofsen, Uprising becomes a collective experience. A choir of a hundred community singers and six professional soloists form a mini-society on stage. Jonathan Dove's music is grand, lyrical and direct in its emotional expressiveness. The powerful harmonies and rich orchestral sounds make Uprising a compelling opera experience, in the hall and on stage.
