Leviathan

Seen through a foreign language and a fever, an avant-garde production of Richard Wagner's legendary opera Lohengrin becomes the nightmare landscape for a classic horror story: after accepting an ominous vocal invitation, a pair of talented young opera singers find themselves trapped within a playhouse whose patrons and producer are sincere in their desire to 'consume the arts.'Concerned first and foremost with what it means to 'become your character,' Leviathan carries performance theory to its logical extremes, illustrating all the dangerous and subversive power of theatre and spectacle.
