REEL WOMAN

Chamber Opera, 2018

Pedro Lima, Gareth Mattey, Alex Lowe, Madison Nona, Timothy Redmond

Composer - Pedro Lima | Libretto - Gareth Mattey | Stage Director - John Ramsey | Conductor - Timothy Redmond | Premiered at the Milton Court Studio Theatre // Theatre Guidhall School of Music and Drama // (London)

Me - Alex Lowe (soprano)

She - Madison Nonoa-Horsefield (soprano)

Them - Samantha Clarke (soprano), Carmen Insausti (mezzosoprano), Filipe Manu (tenor), Sean Boylan (baritone)

Me, a woman newly herself, is certain a key to her gender identity and self confidence is locked within the figure of a woman in the background of two films from the 1890s. Her false friends and family think otherwise, but Me remains wedded to She no matter what Them say. A multimedia tragicomic chamber opera on trans identity and the allure of the silver screen.
