Fables (working title) – A Film Opera

In co-production with Spitalfields Music
World premiere at Spitalfields Winter Festival 2010 then touring

Streetwise Opera’s 2010 production will be our second venture into film following the incredible success of My Secret Heart. Fables will be a collection of short Film Operas, each created by our Streetwise performers working with a different film-maker/visual artist and composer.

The collection of Film Operas will be given a live theatrical context at the Spitalfields Winter Festival 2010 before the films tour to other festivals and venues world-wide.

We are currently developing plans with our performers working with director Emma Bernard, composers Orlando Gough, Mira Calix, Emily Hall and Paul Sartin and Andy Mellon from the folk band Bellowhead together with film-makers Flat-e, Sophie Clements, Tom Marshall and Iain Finlay. Watch this space.

Grateful thanks to Jerwood Space for supporting us through our development process.
