Premiere Performance of The Way of Light

About the Event

“THE WAY OF LIGHT” is a six-part, poetic, spoken word operetta that weaves together movement, collective voice, and ritual to raise the voices, lives and writings of Topeka residents. Exploring the idea of “the beloved community” as envisioned by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., “THE WAY OF LIGHT” is both a performance piece and a work of public art. The operetta was co-written by artists Angel Haze, August Mendoza and vanessa german. Its premiere performance will be recorded and submitted for consideration for a Grammy.

Prior to the performance, ArtsConnect will host a public reception beginning at 6:30pm. The operetta will be followed by a talk-back discussion with members of the choir and german.

Location: White Concert Hall
