If you combine opera, virtual reality, art and science you have a good start in understanding what The Hubble Cantata might be. Beth Morrison Projects has teamed up with LA Opera, composer Paola Prestini, librettist Royce Vavrek and filmmaker Eliza McNitt to bring the west coast premiere of this one-hour cantata. Each audience member will have headsets through which to experience the VR component of the show. (Downloading an app before arriving will be helpful, though you can watch the film projected, too.) Dr. Mario Livio, acclaimed astrophysicist, narrates this story of one man’s search for his wife amongst the stars.
