A seamless blend of Baroque and contemporary song and dance, this interdisciplinary performance is a powerful
reclamation of the story of Dido, The Queen of Carthage, and her legacy as a political leader, an empire builder and a
woman of colour. This operatic performance created by re:Naissance Opera features Canadian soprano Charlotte Siegel
as Dido and three new works by contemporary composers Jessica McMann, Robyn Jacob and Afarin Mansouri, along
with those of Baroque composers Henry Purcell and John Dowland. The project places Dido through a prism in which her
story as a multifaceted leader, lover and outcast are shown in their fullness.
