Everest: Opera In The Planetarium

Opera Parallèle, San Francisco's premier contemporary opera company, presents Everest: Opera in the Planetarium*. Based on the true story of a 1996 ill-fated expedition to summit Mount Everest, this evocative production transforms the internationally acclaimed opera into a riveting graphic novel film projected in the midst of the rich soundscape of the California Academy of Sciences Morrison Planetarium. Audiences will be enveloped in the majesty and peril of the world’s highest mountain as they follow, breath by breath, the stories of the brave climbers and their guides as they give their everything to reach the top. *This is not a live opera, but an immersive operatic experience. Cast and conductor not appearing live. Composed by Joby Talbot, Libretto by Gene Scheer. Running Time: 68 mins with no intermission. Performed in English with subtitles. Dates: November 8 - 17 2024 Location: Morrison Planetarium, California Academy of Sciences Tickets on sale now at https://www.cityboxoffice.com/everest
