• ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

  Program Leaflet
  In The Limit of the Sun, four characters, on two sides
  of the world, are embroiled in a matrix of powerful
  emotional needs and failed governmental systems that
  engender violence and unjust incarceration. Through
  their experience we probe the limits of our capacity
  to connect across time and space, and to understand
  justice on both a global and individual scale.
  The opera chronicles the interlaced narratives of Assam,
  a young man in a post-colonial nation tasked with
  guarding Cody, a US journalist who has been kidnapped
  in-country, Louisa, Cody’s mother, and Judith, the
  federal agent assigned to the case.
