Based on the novella by D.H. Lawrence, The Fox is a captivating new opera by Vancouver composer Roan Shankaruk. The story revolves around the nuanced relationships and power dynamics of its characters—two women who run an isolated poultry farm in the wake of WWI and the Spanish Flu, and the charming young soldier who comes to stay. How does instinct guide our choices? How do societal expectations shape our lives? And what will happen if Nellie ever finds that troublesome fox? Join Opera Unbound for the premiere of this exciting new work, and see for yourself.
