Opera will merge with real‑time motion‑capture technology for a one‑of‑a‑kind show staged in Chilliwack.

Live from the Underworld, a collaborative production bringing together opera, dance, hip‑hop and video‑game professionals, will be presented at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre on February 3.
This interactive performance retells the Greek myth of Eurydice and is brought to the stage by re:Naissance Opera.
Featuring computer‑generated environments and myth‑themed avatars, audiences will experience a hybrid‑stage adaptation of the story through real‑time motion capture and projection. Onstage, performers and vocalists have their avatars projected onto screens behind them, bringing these digital figures to life. This cross‑disciplinary collaboration yields an anti‑genre production that redefines modern opera.
