A Message of Empowerment from Board Member Susan Wilson

Susan Wilson

Board Member for Guerilla Opera, Arts Producer, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

Your generosity propels our mission and supports our passion for bringing important performances to the stage. Thank you for being a part of our journey.

As we stand on the threshold of a new frontier in the performing arts, I write to you with a sense of excitement and anticipation. Guerilla Opera has always been at the vanguard of innovation, transcending traditional boundaries to offer experiences that are nothing short of transformative. This Giving Tuesday, we have a unique opportunity to continue this legacy with our upcoming production, "Ululations and Gurgles of the Invisible."

This production is not just a performance; it is an odyssey into synthesizing art and technology to expand the ways performers can connect with their audience. Our artists, in collaboration with technologists and designers, have created an immersive world where motion sensors are not merely tools but partners in a dance of light, sound, texture and narrative. It is an endeavor that blurs the lines between the digital and the physical, inviting our audience into a space where every movement resonates with meaning and emotion.

As a producer of new works on the cutting edge of performance technology at MIT and beyond, I have witnessed how technology can amplify our human experiences. With "Ululations and Gurgles of the Invisible," we harness this potential to not only tell a story but to let our audience live within it. Your support this Giving Tuesday will help us to explore the creative potential of this technology, ensuring that our performers and designers can add even more layers to the storytelling they present onstage with fluidity and grace.

 
 

Your contribution will directly influence the success of this inventive production and future works that dare to dream big. It is a chance to be part of something larger than ourselves—a movement that reshapes and continues to redefine the art of opera.

Please make a donation to Guerilla Opera this Giving Tuesday. Let us continue to champion the bold, the innovative, and the sublime. Together, we can give life to a spectacle that promises not just to entertain but to inspire and to ignite the imagination.

With deepest gratitude and excitement for what we can achieve together,

Guerilla Opera
