We wish to acknowledge this land on which the University of Toronto operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
Thank you for watching our performance. Please consider supporting our students and programming: visit engage.utoront... to make a gift today!

An impeccable quality of music, singers, set, and musicians --- what more can we expect? Excellent production! I hope this sets a standard for the future of contemporary opera!
