ARK

Set to premiere in Manchester in 2024, ARK is an opera starring a host of mythical and contemporary figures. Anderson’s subjects—time, technology, and American history—are warped into a story that sometimes moves backwards. Apocalyptic climate events and information overload set the scenes for these stories, visual poems, and songs.

Laurie Anderson and her team are in the Theater in August for a final production residency for her opera ARK before it premieres in Manchester in November 2024.
