“the leading edge of operatic innovation” —Jeffrey Marlow, Wired
For more than a decade, The Industry has created experimental productions that expand opera’s traditional definition, drawing new and diverse artists and audiences to the medium through interdisciplinary collaborations. The Industry LAB series is at the very core of these experiments, inviting artists who have never worked in opera to reexamine its history and orthodoxies—recasting the art form both onstage and in the gallery to reinvent its shape for our time.
LAB artists, following a period of incubation at REDCAT, will present works in the gallery and on the stage across a two-week program. Designed to showcase works in progress, LAB is a celebration of ideas, imagination, and collaborative risk-taking.
Please note: This program contains flashing lights, loud sounds, and mature content.
This program is made possible with support from Amphion Foundation, City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, and New Music USA.
