EVENT INFORMATION
Long Beach Opera brings you The Death of Klinghoffer
Southern California Premiere
Sunday March 16 @ 7 PM
Saturday March 22 @ 2 PM
John Adam's opera examines Middle East politics through the 1985 hijacking of the Achille Lauro cruise liner. Adams' landmark opera is a microcosm of human tragedy triggered by ongoing conflict. The passionate score waxes and wanes with the frantic pulses of the captive passengers and the endgame is the long overdue SoCal Premiere of an opera LA Times calls a "rare insight into the most troubling and destructive political and cultural division of our age."
