Mexican-American composer Nathan Felix will present his immersive opera, Glory Gone, a 45-minute production that explores the theme of restoring voices and the search for one’s purpose and identity in the face of racial discrimination.
The narrative follows Gloria, a prolific Hispanic singer who rose from poverty and into the national limelight by crossing over into the American mainstream. After a concert, Gloria is assaulted by an obsessed and jealous photographer. On life support, Gloria fights for her life and survives as fans go on live television to ask the nation to pray for her.
While recovering she looks at herself in the mirror and becomes depressed with her now scarred neck that also has stripped her of continuing her singing career. Gloria struggles with her self worth, identity and purpose. An underlying anger for her assailant boils over and she schemes a plot to inflict pain on him as revenge for destroying her career.
Glory Gone will occur as an immersive production in various spaces within the Radius Center.
