A new multi-media musical production that reimagines the Genesis story in ways that will forever change how you think about it. Eve Apart explores primal themes of feminine powers, to give them a stark and modern relevance. Using voice, music, video and choreography, Eve Apart explores gender identity, myth, religious paradigm and human nature. Eve Apart features a diverse cast of nine singers, a live musical ensemble and multi-media technology. The work was created by Tennessee composer Tim Hinck. The libretto is by Pittsburghs Kip Soteres, who created it as a tribute of love to his own Eve, wife and soprano Desiree Soteres, to fit her amazing range and talents as singer and actress.
