Ep. 2 Cynthia Stokes, UA Opera - The HNPod
It was so great to reconnect with Cynthia in this interview. We met a number of years ago, but had lost touch becasue the world is like the world is.
We ran into each other at a conference a few weeks ago and I'm SO glad that we did. We got to talk about her directing, her teaching, and everything that makes her so special!
The best way to get in touch with Cynthia is via email - [email protected]
---------------------------------------
Cynthia Stokes’ career is devoted to developing community through the power of live performance in unexpected locations and thru the use of new media. Her installations include: La hija de Rappaccini staged in an architectural slot canyon on the campus of the University of Arizona; Queen of Carthage, set overlooking the Pacific Ocean for La Jolla Playhouse’s WOW Festival; and Dominic Argento’s The Andrée Expedition with American baritone, Michael Chioldi set in an abandoned marble quarry. She reimagined Andrée as an intimate 360-degree VR experience with Chioldi. It was presented at SXSW in March 2022.
Directing credits include Piedmont Opera, San Antonio Opera, San Diego Opera, Opera San Jose, Opera Philadelphia, Los Angeles Opera, Cincinnati Opera, Opera Carolina, Michigan Opera Theater, Dallas Opera, Opera Pacific, and Glimmerglass Opera.
Recent funding- Arizona Arts Commission; AU Provost Grant; Qualcomm Ideas Grant. She is the Amelia T. Rieman Endowed Chair for Opera at University of Arizona.
