Blurring the lines of opera, house music and theatre, Nmon Ford’s House of Orfeus will make its World Premiere in 2025 as a co-production with Lincoln Center and Opera Carolina, directed by Charles Randolph-Wright (Netflix’s Greenleaf, Broadway’s Trouble in Mind and Motown: The Musical).
Set in the near future, this unique production blends music genres and performance into a timeless version of Ovid’s legend. Orfeus confronts his true nature to save the beautiful poet Euridice from his father Pluto, the fascist ruler of a dystopian empire.
Award-winning Nmon Ford plays Orfeus.
