The Consul by Gian Carlo Menotti
Arbeit Opera Theatre's Inaugural Production!

THE CONSUL
A government raid on a secret meeting forces political activist John Sorel to abandon his family and flee the country. In hope of insuring his safety his wife, Magda Sorel, appeals to the consulate of a neighboring country to provide him and her family sanctuary. There she meets The Secretary, gatekeeper of the Consul and purveyor of paperwork, whose adherence to bureaucracy obstructs the hopes of immigrants seeking asylum. As the months pass, long waits at the consulate and frequent visits from the police cause the Sorel familys wellbeing to deteriorate and Magdas mental health to unravel. Having lost seemingly everything, she must decide how to flee political strife and find peace.

Join us following each performance for a 30-minute community Talk-Back with our community partner, Advocates for Human Rights.

The Opera is performed in English and will include English supertitles
