Opera in NYC: The Garden of Alice at City Lyric Opera
City Lyric Opera Presents an Immersive, Multi-Sensory American Premiere of Elizabeth Raum’s The Garden of Alice
US Premiere | May 17-21, 2022
One of New York City’s most innovative opera companies, City Lyric Opera (CLO), presents the American premiere of Elizabeth Raum’s The Garden of Alice (1985) with soprano Laura Soto-Bayomi (Opera Colorado) playing the lead role of Alice. CLO’s modern twist on the Lewis Carrol classic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland takes audiences on an interactive journey down a whimsical rabbit hole. Inspired by similar immersive experiences (Sleep No More, Van Gogh), CLO offers audiences a chance to engage in a fantastical Wonderland through a combination of live operatic performances, kaleidoscopic digital landscapes, and a wacky array of costumes and props.
