  • The Seasons

    The Seasons

    You could say Vivaldi had a kind of synesthesia when writing The Four Seasons . What does being cold feel and sound like? MacArthur Award-winning playwright and librettist Sarah Ruhl joins Anthony Roth Costanzo to co-conceive a tapestry of Vivaldi’s music, telling an original story about a world in which the seasons are completely out of order. Tony Award-winning set designer Mimi Lien collaborates with M.I.T. materials technologist Jack Forman to fuse art and science, bringing atmospheric events to the stage. Celebrated choreographer Pam Tanowitz creates a maelstrom of dance, director Zack Winokur helms the production, and Corrado Rovaris conducts the rapturous piece, which stars Costanzo. All tickets are Pick Your Price , starting at $11. Any amount above $11 helps support other operagoers and the work Opera Philadelphia presents on stage.
