In Divide Light, filmmaker Ed Robbins documents the unique performance piece/opera, Divide Light, which was conceived and created by artist Lesley Dill with music composed by Richard Marriott. In this piece with lyrics inspired by Emily Dickinson, the singers wear lavish handmade costumes designed by Dill that expand, unfold, unravel, and transform during the performance. The piece is performed by eight opera singers of the New Camerata Opera Company, alongside the Curiosity Cabinet Quintet. This free event takes place at the Emily Bonavia Tallgrass Film Center, 120 E. 1st. St., Unit #113. The film will screen starting at 1 p.m., followed by a brief Q&A with Lesley Dill and Ed Robbins.
