The 'Open Forum' Listening Lab invites participants ​to lend their ears and share their thoughts as we explore our work-in-progress production 'Veritable Michael — a podcast opera'.

This is a relaxed online event where you can watch, listen and respond to the scenes our creative team will be sharing from Veritable Michael. We're keen to learn what about the project interests you. What excites you? What do you want to hear more of?

It's our chance to hear your thoughts on what we're making, and your chance to...

  • enjoy a look behind the scenes of an opera in development 

  • learn more about the story of Michael Field

  • explore the project with the Shadow Opera creative team

  • participate in group discussions about the story and its modern relevance

  • socialise with other curious souls

The session will use Michael Field's story as a jumping off point for exploring the main themes of the piece:

  • exploring and creating gender

  • life as a queer artist 

  • making female voices heard
