DESCRIPTION:
USC Thornton Opera and Uniarts Helsinki’s Sibelius Academy collaborate on the world premiere of All the Truths We Cannot See: A Chernobyl Story, an opera chronicling the Chernobyl nuclear power plant explosion. This opera by Finnish composer Uljas Pulkkis with American librettist Glenda Dawn Goss tells a story of fundamental human conflicts woven into events surrounding the social and environmental disaster that occurred on April 26, 1986. An international cast will feature student-performers from USC Thornton and the Sibelius Academy with a production directed and designed by faculty and designers from both countries. All The Truths premieres in Helsinki in March 2022 before making its American debut at USC’s Bing Theatre.

This performance will include a pre-show conversation with several of the creators.
