In this edgy, semi-staged reimagining of Semele, Handel’s myth of desire and divine hubris is set in the glitzy, cutthroat world of influencer celebrity culture (think a Kardashian level starlet on the rise). Semele is a social media icon and reality TV actress lured by Jupiter, a powerful Hollywood producer, who promises to make her truly “immortal” through global superstardom. This sleek, contemporary staging mixes red carpets, viral livestreams, and paparazzi projections to expose our obsession with fame, beauty, and the tragic cost of wanting to live forever in the spotlight.
