As a child, Hildegard Von Bingen began experiencing intense prophetic – and often apocalyptic – visions and communications with God. Suffering through chronic illness, she kept these hidden from those around her until her forties, fearing she would be branded a lunatic or, worse, a witch.
This multigenerational female ensemble uses voice and movement in an physical opera to explore the span of a woman’s life, what it means to always live in fear, with wisdom, and if Hildegard ever felt truly free.
When she finally revealed herself as a visionary, music, poetry, and wisdom spilled out of her, and she became one of the most prominent women in European history, and is now regarded as the Patron Saint of music and poetry.
In ‘Hildegard’ the use of multimedia and movement viscerally externalises her internal trials and tribulations, immersing the audience in her mind and heart.
