“Join the Racial Justice Opera Network for a conversation on the artistic process of creating a new work and the collaboration between creators and producers. The webinar spotlights Hello, Star, a forthcoming opera by composer Carla Lucero and librettist Jarrod Lee, adapted from the novel by Stephanie V.W. Lucianovic. The piece honors the contributions of Black women in science through the heartfelt journey of a young girl who heeds the call of a dying star. Creatives Lucianovic, Lucero, and Lee will be joined by artistic directors Nicole Paiement (Opera Parallèle) and Mary Duncan Steidl (Peabody Opera) to discuss the creative path of bringing Hello, Star to the stage. ” – OPERA America
