Savior

Abagael Cheng will perform as Joan of Arc in City Lyric Opera’s production of Savior by Amy Beth Kirsten. In this contemporary chamber opera, we witness the final reckoning of Joan of Arc — a teenage girl condemned for her divine convictions and revolutionary courage. Sung in trio through Kirsten’s electrifying, visceral soundscape, Savior reframes Joan’s martyrdom as a feminist outcry that still echoes across centuries.
