Amistad: An opera by Anthony Davis
Join us for a special highlights performance of Amistad, the groundbreaking opera by Pulitzer Prize-winner Anthony Davis, presented by Connecticut Lyric Opera in collaboration with Discovering Amistad and Harlem Opera Theater. This abridged version brings to life the harrowing yet inspiring true story of the 1839 slave ship rebellion—a pivotal moment in both American and Connecticut history. Featuring compelling narration and stirring music, this event is more than a performance: it’s a springboard for thoughtful community dialogue. After the performance, stay for a moderated discussion as we reflect on how the themes of resistance, justice, and dignity echo in our society today. Be part of this moving blend of art and conversation, and help us explore why Amistad still speaks so urgently to the present moment.
