Join New Wave Opera for Atoms & Artifacts, an exploration of the perceptions & experiences of historical women. Amelia performs in a small chamber ensemble for the west coast premiere of Marie Curie Learns to Swim by Jessica Rudman, composer & Kendra Preston Leonard, librettist. In the opera, famous scientist Madame Curie and her daughter and research partner Irene take a vacation to the sea. Irene longs for rest, internally struggling with her fears about the radium they are using in their research, while Marie feels the urgency to return to her lab and continue her ground-breaking scientific discoveries.
