The Trailer for "Sweet Land", a new opera

The Arrivals wash up on the shore. They make contact with another civilization they call “the Hosts.” And from there, the story splinters, following diverging perspectives. Starting as a procession through the LA State Historic Park, Sweet Land becomes an opera that erases itself.

Named "Best New Opera" by the Music Critics Association of North America in 2021, The Industry's Sweet Land is a grotesque historical pageant that disrupts the dominant narrative of American identity.

To watch a full screening, bring a lawn chair or a blanket and join us on October 6 at 7:30 pm on Emory's Quadrangle for an outdoor screening of the film version of Sweet Land, recorded in March of 2020, outside in Los Angeles State Historic Park.
