Casting has been announced for Opera in Eden, to be presented at Symphony Space on Thursday, June 2 at 7pm. Composer/librettist Mark Adamo will moderate the event, which is the culmination of an intensive workshop led by Adamo as part of the core curriculum of American Lyric Theater’s Composer Librettist Development Program.

The program will feature four operatic fantasies on temptation: Cycle by composer Clint Borzoni and librettist Tony Asaro; On the Origin by composer Justine F. Chen and librettist Rochelle Bright; Seed by composer Gerald Cohen and librettist David Simpatico; and All Woundsd Bleed by composer Christopher Cerrone and Librettist Tony Asaro.

Performers will include soprano Caroline Worra; soprano Chelsea Basler; mezzo soprano Sarah Heltzel; tenor Kyle Bielfield; tenor Glenn Seven Allen; baritone Christopher Burchett; and music director Keith Chambers.

Following the performance, the audience will be invited to discuss the pieces and the compositional process with Adamo and ALT’s Resident Artists.
