White Snake Productions
Alice in the Pandemic: A Digital Opera was created specifically as a live performance to be experienced online during COVID social isolation. White Snake Productions (Boston, MA), produced the opera, which aired October 27-30, 2020. The team utilized new technologies that enabled the cast to sing from different locations while the sound was synced in real-time. Virtual avatars took the place of the singers onscreen. Alice in the Pandemic was composed by Jorge Sosa with libretto by Cerise Jacobs. Tianhui Ng directed the music, while the production was directed by Elena Araoz. Digital collection items include 60 GB of files from composer Jorge Sosa, as well as a short documentary directed by Sarah Rogers about how the opera was made, including explanations from the creators about technology they utilized. Some sound files were created in Logic and ProTools and may not open without proprietary software.

DF Chronos, 2021
DIGITAL ID: PACR_MUS_2021_137
In late August 2020, The Washington Ballet slowly and safely began to welcome dancers back to the studios to begin work on its new initiative, Create In Place, to reflect the times. Dancers were divided into four isolated "pods" of ten, each with an in-house choreographer lead. Xiomara Reyes, Head of the Professional Training Division, choreographed Chronos . This ballet is about time and how it can be perceived differently depending on the situations that people experience and the frustration of putting life on hold, but with the hope of renewal.
