ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
This is the second part of our development of Icarus, following Tête à Tête’s staging of a short scene last summer at the Tête à Tête: The Opera Festival.
In this, the first act, we see the master craftsman Daedalus teaching his son Icarus the art of the smith. But Icarus struggles to match the high expectations of his father. By contrast, Talus, Daedalus’s nephew, surges ahead in his invention – with devastating consequences.
