And then one day, finally\u2026<br><br>\nRegrets is NewOpera CO&#8217;s new work. It is an electronic opera that wants to explore what happens when sung dramatic text resides in electronic sound worlds. The drama takes place in three different rooms that shift the relationship between actor and spectator in different ways.<br>\nRegrets is about regret, about different life choices, about guilt, about reconciliation, about the fact that we are all going to die, and that the journey there goes faster than most of us want to realize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201dThis is the most restrained of NewOpera&#8217;s productions, but it is also the saddest. The <i>regret<\/i> that the title speaks of is about trying to put life back together, using fragments of memory and dream scenes.
