Tva Kamila

ABOUT THE PLAY:

Contemporary deconstructionist composition meets 19th century social mores in this literary quartet based on the lives of Czech composer Leos Janacek and his muse Kamila Stosslova. Tva Kamila follows their rapturous and mysterious relationship through letters and music as they (and their respective spouses) navigate unknown territory at the cusp of a brave new world they can't even imagine.
