A finalist for Opera America’s 2022 Award for Excellence in Digital Opera, this is an emotional journey inspired by the life and work of English filmmaker and queer rights activist Derek Jarman, making its world premiere in the theatre. Conceived and devised by U.K./Canadian director Tim Albery, "Garden of Vanished Pleasures" blends the works of two composers: Cecilia Livingston and Donna McKevitt. Livingston writes deeply felt songs of love and loss, and they chime perfectly with McKevitt’s heart-aching songs that use texts drawn from Jarman’s own journals.
