Opera: MASS by Leonard Bernstein with Stephen Schwartz

(Music)

MASS is a fully staged, dramatic pageant that mixes sacred and secular texts. Bernstein and Schwartz took the Tridentine Mass, a highly-ritualized Catholic rite and applied to it a very Jewish practice of debating and arguing with God. This production is set in a post-apocalyptic period, where two people work to find a common ritual for living, one working from the past in the Catholic rite and the other, a Deaf character, striving for a new path to shared communication. "Can God hear us?" "Can we hear God?" "Can we hear each other in moments of ideological differences?" Sung/acted in Latin, English, Greek, Hebrew, American Sign Language, and Signed Exact English. Advisory: the production contains images of violence.
