https://facingwestshadowtheatre.wordpress.com/
Facing West Shadow Opera is a collective of artists, puppeteers, filmmakers and musicians hybridizing art forms to create magical acts of rebellion as small scale experimental art that is sustainable in the current gold rush climate of the Bay Area. Currently we are performing a live Baroque puppet opera: THE EUPHORIA OF WALT WHITMAN exploring Queer Poet Walt Whitman’s obsession with the traveling operas of the Wild West and Gold Rush era. Part of the program will also include two shorts by FWSO Artistic Director Lydia Greer, Hysteria, a new short video, and an excerpt from her animation, A Self Made House.
