The virtuous Belle, in order to save her bankrupt father’s life, surrenders her person to the Bête, whom she eventually agrees to marry when her feelings of gratitude outweigh the drawbacks of his repulsive physique. This is the moral of the fairytale “Beauty and the Beast” written by Mme. Gabrielle Suzanne Villeneuve in 1742. Driven by her father’s debts to the Paris salons of Louis XIV, impoverished noblewoman and newcomer Mme. Villeneuve is mocked by courtiers. She is befriended by the shabby but infamous poet Crébillon, who prefers animals to humans and honesty to the wit of the court.  

La Belle et la Bête

Contemporary Arts Center

Activist. Orator. Husband. Leader. One of the most misunderstood figures in US history, Malcolm X was an icon of the civil rights movement. Get to know the man through a series of biographical vignettes that follow Malcolm X from his interrupted childhood in Lansing, Michigan to his tragic murder in Harlem. With a score by Pulitzer Prize-winning American composer Anthony Davis (Central Park Five) that fuses elements of modernism, minimalism, and jazz, X produces a sound world that is unmistakably individual.

X: The Life & Times of Malcolm X

Seattle Center

On Gold Mountain, composed by Nathan Wang and based on the book by Lisa See, tells the true story of Fong See, a pioneer of Los Angeles’ Chinatown who immigrated to America to work and find his fortune. Along the way he overcame many obstacles, finding both love and hardship. Most importantly, he discovered himself. In the opera, we not only relive the experiences of Fong See, his American wife Ticie, and other Chinese pioneers, but we also realize the ways in which memory and experience influence our sense of who we are.
