If you want to stage this amazing work in 2013, email 3Mask on info@3mask.com.au ****************************************************************************************************** Razing Hypatia explores the disintegrating psyche of a contemporary woman who envisions herself an echo of Hypatia, the 5th century female mathematician/astronomer who was lynched and murdered for being a pagan at the time when the Christian Church imposed its orthodoxy in Alexandria in Egypt. The opera explores the destructive nature of social and religious extremism and the constant struggle between Passion and Reason. Many thanks to the crew of Razing Hypatia; composer Kevin March, librettist and author of the original play Jane Montgomery-Griffiths, director Jeannie Marsh, cast Kerrie-Ann Bolton, Jocelyn Hickey and Charlotte Betts-Dean, Stage Manager Dave Kelly and FOH Manager Holly Sharpe.
