On June 29th, Vermont-based playwright David
Budbill and composer Erik Nielsen, a fellow
Vermonter, will offer a lively and informative look
at their opera collaboration, A Fleeting Animal.
Based on some of David’s play Judevine, A
Fleeting Animal offers a moving portrayal of life
in a small Vermont town, with tender, funny, and
tragic moments. This is a unique opportunity to
take a glimpse behind the scenes as David and Erik
discuss the genesis of the work, their collaboration,
and play excerpts from the original production.
With a newly-revised form of the opera coming to
Woodstock, VT on September 18, they’ll tell the
audience what to expect in the upcoming shows
and answer your questions.
