Our first period of preparation for the production has been great. This is a great team of musicians, singers and visual and movements artists. It's going to be a wonderful show. From my perspective as composer, I am really happy with our work. We work long days to get all of the details just right. Chants Libres is a great company. This is contemporary music theatre the way it should be. This is a show for everyone who has ever tried to love. It is sung in English and French. The story is about trying to find love on the internet, so it's a new/old story. If you are involved in opera, theatre, dance, film, video, or computer-based art or image manipulation, you are going to want to see this show. And if you are a band looking for ideas on how to make your act more of a show, you've got to see this. We are integrating image and sound processing into various aspects of the show and are performing with the audience throughout the room, very close to the actor/singers. (Don't worry if you like to sit at the back: there are seats there as well.) It's going to be fun!
