Unwritten: MUO takes literature underground

This season, written works are reimagined as operas that will inspire tears, nostalgia, joy, and everything in between. In Rocking Horse Winner, a short story by D.H. Lawrence, Paul is willing to do anything to ensure his family maintains their increasingly precarious social status. Hansel and Gretel, the classic fairytale by the Brothers Grimm, demonstrates the folly of selfishness and the value of cooperation and resourcefulness. The Tales of Hoffmann showcase the absurd adventures of a hapless would-be romantic hero. 

In 2024, MUO makes some of the greatest stories ever written leap off the page. Venture into a mansion haunted by bitterness at the Millennium Centre, follow a trail of crumbs into the forest at Winnipeg Art Gallery, and leave your inhibitions at the door when you enter a world of drag and debauchery at Club 200. Reserve your season pass today to experience Unwritten.
