The Enslavement and Liberation of Oksana G March 10, 2011

Wayne Strongman, Managing Artistic Director, is pleased to announce that on March 9 & 10, 2011 Tapestry New Opera will be holding the first public showcase of Colleen Murphy and Aaron Gervais’ The Enslavement and Liberation of Oksana G., in advance of its world premiere in a future season. Oksana, a young girl in Sarata, Ukraine, is lured into the world of sex trafficking by Konstantin, a Russian recruiter, who unexpectedly falls in love with her. Oksana escapes his grip and finds her way to a refugee shelter in Brindisi, Italy, run by Father Alexander, a Canadian priest. Recovering from her ordeal, she finds herself drawn to the priest. Meanwhile, Konstantin waits for his chance to pounce. This dangerous ménage à trois appears destined to end in tragedy.
