Save the Date: The Industry presents the world premiere of Crescent City, starting Thursday, May 10, 2012 at Atwater Crossing in Los Angeles. The hyperopera is by composer Anne LeBaron, widely recognized for her work in instrumental, electronic, and performance realms, and librettist Douglas Kearney, a poet, performer and recipient of the Whiting Writer’s Award, and it incorporates installations by six contemporary LA-based artists. Crescent City, directed by Yuval Sharon, tells the epic story of a mythical city, decimated by one hurricane and on the verge of being wiped off the face of the earth by another, and the voodoo priestess determined to save it. A roving band of revelers spreads chaos throughout the streets of the city, capturing the action of the opera with live video along the way. www.TheIndustryLA.org
