Postcard from Morocco

  • NEC’s Plimpton Shattuck Black Box Theatre (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Seven strangers wait for a train and describe the contents of their luggage—a hat box, a cornet case, a cake box—but refuse to let anyone see. A charming and surreal meditation on how we long to hide, yet long to be seen.

Fully staged in NEC's Plimpton Shattuck Black Box Theatre, and featuring NEC’s orchestral players and graduate opera students, Elaine sings the Lady with a Hat Box in Dominick Argento’s Postcard from Morocco under the baton of Robert Tweten.
