From some of Canada’s most innovative music and opera organizations comes the Canadian premiere of Angel’s Bone. This Pulitzer-prize winning opera by Du Yun and Royce Vavrek uses contemporary opera as a creative lens and collaborative tool to generate conversation and awareness around human trafficking of youth, happening in our Canadian communities.

Using multimedia design elements and a unique community engagement approach that brings together social workers, survivors, lawyers, human rights activists and opera artists, in co-presentation with several other organizations, Turning Point Ensemble brings a once-in-a-lifetime cross-cultural event, premiering in Vancouver (November 2022) and Toronto (Spring 2023).

This is a co-presentation with Arraymusic, re:Naissance Opera, Sound the Alarm/Theatre and Loose Tea Music Theatre.
