The production is a large-scale, genre-bending contemporary opera integrating an astounding array of innovative art installations, dance, voice, live and recorded music, projected video, costuming, community participation, and theater. The lead characters - Tom & Sue - have lost their identities and they travel to 21 imaginary lands to find them. The couple reclaims their stories by visiting these imaginary lands that embody the pivotal experiences of their lives. The production was developed and cultivated by Director O-Lan Jones in an extensive guided collaboration that involves twenty one librettists, eleven composers, Costume and Scenic Designer Snezana Petrovic, Musical Director David O, Instrument Inventor Bart Hopkin, Choreographer Nina Winthrop, twenty performers, a nine-piece live orchestra, dozens of crew members, scores of community volunteers, and many others.
