Coyote the Trickster is up to no good. From 1890 western Nevada, where he’s watching some new Paiute ceremony he’s never seen before, he manages to pull Chayson, a nonbinary half-Lakota bike messenger, from a South of Market club in 1990 San Francisco. When Coyote tries to send Chayson back to his own time and space, he misses the mark by 200 years.
GhostRave unfolds – for Coyote, Chayson, a cast of Native and indigenous characters both real and unreal, and above all for the audience – as an immersive operatic adventure that breaks the rules of dancefloors, spacetime, indigeneity, genderqueerness, opera, and theatre.
A limited number of tickets will be available for each performance – patrons are welcome to sit, stand, and dance. It’s a new, original experience coming alive in a workshop production from TigerBear, the creative production team that brought the immersive kink chamber opera Unbound to Palm Springs and the award-winning Deal With The Dragon to the Magic Theatre.
Electronic music, haze effects, flashing lights, scent design.
