Feminist Retellings of Myth

We feature three works that recast age-old myths from a woman's
perspective. Milica Paranosic's Penelope and the Geese reimagines
the Odyssey from Penelope's point of view.  We talk with her
about the opera and feature three key scenes.


And Marisa Michelson's Naama's Ark tells the flood myth from the
perspective of Noah's wife and Salvatore Sciarrino's La Nuova
Euridice lets Orpheus' famous bride tells her own story.
