Following the success of their 2019 world premiere Frida Kahlo and the Bravest Girl in the World, composer Joe Illick and librettist Mark Campbell created Stone Soup, a new family opera for Fort Worth Opera. Initially planned for live performances in fall 2020, the production pivoted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to become the company’s first cinematic opera project. Filmed entirely on green screens while still using full costumes, sets, and props, the digital production was a cornerstone of FWO’s 75th anniversary season. The virtual project was led by FWO Manager of Education Sheran Goodspeed Keyton, film producer Charles W. Bush of Appointed Productions, and FWO Head of Music Charlene Lotz, and was streamed on the company’s website in October 2020.
No upcoming performance scheduled.
