    21st Century opera production Lecture outline as part of a lecture by NY composer Sabrina Pena Young, composer of LIbertaria: The VIrtual Opera. Libertaria: The Virtual Opera http://virtualopera.wordpress.com/ More about Libertaria: In a post-USA dystopia a teen rebel Libertaria escapes from a genetics factory and teams up with her addict father in this cutting edge sci-fi opera by award-winning composer Sabrina Pena Young. The Libertaria Motion Picture Soundtrack is a special edition double album set that includes the popular jazzy tune “Metal Ink”, performed by indie rocker Matthew Meadows (aka Rango the Dog) and electronica guru Perry R. Cook, and rousing epic symphonic scores like “Pilar of the Underground” and the Trans-Siberian Orchestra-inspired “Rebellion”. The heart-wrenching lullaby “Lonely Mother’s Cry”, performed by the talented Yvette Teel and Jennifer Hermansky, tugs at your heartstrings, and electronic space mashes like “Baby Machine” and “Medallion Girls” are truly out of this world! Round it off with the robotic dance tune “Broken” for a truly transcending musical experience! This is musical theater madness and rock opera insanity at its best! A cutting edge musical for the 21st Century! Cast (In Alphabetical Order): Joe Cameron: Gabe/Chorus Perry R. Cook: Simeon/Gabe/Miguel/Chorus Gracia Gillund: Libertaria/Chorus Jennifer Hermansky: New Dawn Solo/The Nurse/Chorus Matthew Meadows: Simeon Kate Sikora: Libertaria/Chorus Gretchen Suarez-Pena: Lucinde/Chorus Yvette Teel: The Nurse Additional vocals: Alan Manuel Pena (Broken) Directed by Sabrina Pena Young Original score by Sabrina Pena Young Cast Album Mastered by Patrick Rundbladh at P.R.
