6/2010 George Bush: The Last 100 Days

FESTIVAL X – 10TH ANNUAL FRESH VOICES FESTIVAL OF NEW WORKS – PROGRAM A

June 17th and 19th at 8pm
Featuring nine composers, five from the Bay Area, two from New York, one from Pennsylvania and one from Oklahoma.

Come with us as we XPLORE: an erotic transformation in Hungary; starving artists in a sideshow in Czechoslovakia; a pioneer woman in Nebraska driven mad by loneliness; an Xpresident disintegrating in America. And more!

Chelsea will be playing The Reporter in George Bush: The Last 100 Days, a hilarious one act opera by Chris Whitacre. During the course of the opera, President George Bush decides he wants to “change his mind” on many of his policies. Of course the liberal reporter falls madly in love with him! It is a great score with some really funny moments. George Bush will be performed with several other new works by local composers.
