Richard Kennedy will present Free Lunch: From Drink to Tix to Dream Tix that shifts away from the focus on personal trauma to ways Richard Kennedy can use opera to facilitate community healing.
Free Lunch: From Drink Tix to Dream Tix will take place outside, socially distanced, bringing the opera house into the streets of Brooklyn. With the indefinite closure of opera houses across the globe, now is the time to reclaim the opera house as a public space . A space that gives life to new stories and ways of being, eliminating the hierarchy and giving everyone VIP box seats.
Support also provided by the Franklin Furnace Fund supported by Jerome Foundation, The SHS Foundation, and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
