Regenesis: An Opera Tentacular (Act I)
Regenesis: An Opera Tentacular is a non-linear story of cyclical life, death, embodiment, and community, set in a world healing from the apocalypse.
The three-act narrative is inspired by the Shinto goddess of creation and destruction, Izanami who burns to death giving birth to the world. Regenesis is a speculative mythology of channeling supernatural beings who heal the broken body of the earth through collective care.
