A Soldier's Tale

Night Light Collective/ New Resonance Orchestra 2013

Director

The New Resonance Orchestra transposed Stravinsky’s “The Soldier’s Tale” to contemporary America in a dance theater collaboration at The Marigny Opera House in New Orleans. 

New Resonance tweaked the original script by poet C.F. Ramuz, adding material from David Finkel’s Iraq War chronicle, “The Good Soldiers.”
