“Set in a satirical vision of mid‑20th‑century society, the opera follows Kitty, the spirited daughter of a wealthy American anthropologist, who insists on finding and taming a “savage” to prove her independence. She discovers Abdul, a young man living in the wilderness of India, and drags him back to the modern world as her prize specimen. Yet Abdul’s transformation into a polished socialite exposes the absurdities of both primitive stereotypes and the shallow sophistication of high society.”

Three acts in two hours with one intermission.
