About This Event

SJSU School of Music - Opera Theater presents - A captivating double bill of La Voix Humaine & Stuck Elevator ☎️ - LA VOIX HUMAINE by Francis Poulenc Poulenc’s searing one-act opera follows a desperate woman through a final phone call with her departing lover. This haunting musical monologue transforms private anguish into visceral theater, as raw emotion unfolds through Poulenc’s lush orchestration and Jean Cocteau’s unflinching text. An unforgettable portrait of love and loss. - STUCK ELEVATOR Music by Byron Au Yong Libretto by Aaron Jafferis Based on the true story of Ming Kuang Chen, a Chinese food deliveryman who was trapped in a Bronx elevator for 81 hours in 2005, this comic-metal-rap-scrap-opera explores the immigrant experience through a blend of operatic singing, rap, and contemporary musical theater that reflects the collision of desperation, delusion, and absurdity in Chen's confined world. - Stage Direction by Luis Orozco Conducted by Fred Cohen Vocal Preparation by Mark Wong - Get tickets: https://tinyurl.com/SJSUOpera2026Tickets - #SJSUOpera #LaVoixHumaine #StuckElevator
