Millennial Tales: Opera for the Age of Digital Distraction Friday, October 5 7:00 PM Performance Composer/Singer Scott Joiner will present and discuss his work in opera. The evening will include screenings of his award-winning short film operas, Connection Lost (The Tinder Opera) and Something Blue (The Bachelor Opera) as well as live performances from his most recent stage work, The Bridesmaids, which was written for an all-female cast and represents the culmination of his collaboration with writer/filmmaker Adam Taylor. As acerbic, tragicomic social commentaries of modern young adult life, Joiner’s operas deal respectively with a newly single man’s first steps into the unfamiliar world of Tinder dating app; a young Reality TV couple's journey from fairy-tale marriage to real-life detachment; and the havoc wreaked by a megalomaniacal bride-to-be.
