Based on some of David’s play Judevine, A Fleeting Animal offers a moving portrayal of life in a small Vermont town, with tender, funny, and tragic moments. This is a unique opportunity to take a glimpse behind the scenes as David and Erik discuss the genesis of the work, their collaboration, and play excerpts from the original production. With a newly-revised form of the opera coming to Woodstock, VT on September 18, they’ll tell the audience what to expect in the upcoming shows and answer your questions.
