Continuum Show Room

Continuum: Show Room

Concert in Co-presentations 2022-2023 Series

Continuum’s largest premiere project to date: A one-act chamber opera in concert format.

In a one-room boutique, a mysterious connection between three characters comes to light. The evocative sound world of Rodney Sharman, masterfully crafted using both early and modern instruments, comes together with libretto of long-time collaborator Atom Egoyan to form a compelling drama of tangled ties and revelations. As clothes are folded, the characters’ lives unfold in unexpected ways.

A pre-concert talk will be held each night at 7:30PM

Rodney Sharman (CA), composer

Atom Egoyan (CA), librettist

Chelsea Dab Hilke, director

Jennifer Tung, conductor

Carla Huhtanen, soprano

Andrea Ludwig, mezzo-soprano

Nicholas Higgs, baritone
