The opera created within PROJECT BUTTERFLY will combine three acts of thirty minutes each (one for each country), made up of three stories dedicated to an environmental theme: water, earth and air. The co-production will involve three composers, one from each project partner\u2019s opera house.<\/span><\/p>

The conception of the work will begin with a <\/span>co-creation phase<\/b> implemented by high school students in three partners\u2019 countries – Italy, Poland and Finland. The selected authors of the opera will work hand-in-hand with the creative team and the artistic directors of the project within two <\/span>artistic residencies in Italy and Poland<\/b>. Finally, after two years of work, the project will culminate, in May 2025, in <\/span>the premiere of the newly created opera <\/b>in the partner theatres and online. The final production will strongly rely on advanced digital technologies and showcase the pathways for a more sustainable opera production.<\/span><\/p>

The opera will be written after 2 co-creation cycle of webinars with high school students.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The first cycle of webinars will help students to find a subject for the opera: environment Agencies and experts in every city of each theatre partner will provide knowledge to the students helping to find subjects suitable for writing a story.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The second cycle of webinars will guide the students into the creative writing of a story. The literary author (lyricist) from each theatre will help each group of students to turn its subject into a story suitable for an opera libretto. The opera lyricists will turn the story into a libretto.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
