TBA: Inebria me
A new, experimental opera by acclaimed LA-based musician and performance artist San Cha, Inebria me queers cisgender and heteronormative archetypes of telenovelas with fiercely original composition, libretto, and nonlinear narrative to celebrate the liberating power of ascendant relationships.
Inebria me is led by a visionary bicoastal trans and queer of color creative team and rooted in San Cha’s personal and artistic influences, including rural Mexican family life, Catholic Church choir, cross-border experiences, Bay Area drag, queer club culture, and nightlife. Blending ranchera, cumbia, mariachi, punk, classical, industrial, and electro, the opera’s dynamic live sound score combines with bold vocal performances and innovative theatrical design to make a powerful political and poetic statement for opera’s modern stage. Both homage and subversion, both minimalism and grandeur, Inebria me defies genre, expands form, and creates its own universe.
