On this episode of Creative Space, we meet the creative team behind ‘10 Days in a Madhouse,’ a world premiere opera making its debut at Opera Philadelphia this Thursday, September 21st.
Inspired by the audacious exploits of 19th-century reporter Nellie Bly, who faked madness in 1887 to report on the conditions of Blackwell’s asylum from the inside, the opera is brought to life by composer Rene Orth, librettist Hannah Moscovitch, director Joanna Settle, and conductor Daniela Candillari.
Together, the creative team reveals their creative process and the elaborate path to the birth of ‘10 Days in a Madhouse’— from the first spark of inspiration to its realization on stage.
