Breaking Glass: Hyperlinking Opera and Issues 

Georgia Public Broadcasting

The Glimmerglass Festival presents Breaking Glass: Hyperlinking Opera and Issues - A National Forum 
The forum series, which will tour to eight cities throughout the United States, promotes discussion about the evolution of opera and the arts in a changing world; who and how art is produced in an increasingly diversified America; and what is the social responsibility of an opera or arts organization beyond its artistic mission. GPB is pleased to kick off the series in Atlanta, where composers Jeanine Tesori and Victor Simonson and authors Tazewell Thompson and Paige Hernandez will talk about the substantive social content in their new operas Blue and Stomping Grounds. They will examine the role of art in stimulating public discussion about race and discrimination in America. Matthew Morrison (New York University Tisch School of the Arts) will moderate the discussion.
