Mall in America

a new OPERA

collaboratively devised by the VHO Troupe

Every town has one. These once-bustling, now abandoned spaces have stories to tell. With this site-specific commission designed to be performed in a mall atrium after hours, VHO's Troupe comes together to devise a new opera that investigates the life, death, and afterlife of the iconic American shopping center.

In development 2024-25, Workshop planned for 2025, Premiere planned for 2026.

VHO's 2024 Season Event graphics, including the image above, were created by producer Brenda Patterson, using Microsoft Bing’s AI Image Generator. Click here to read some of her thoughts on the process.
