Title NameThe Great Nebula in Orion: A Chamber Musical
Marketing CopyTHE GREAT NEBULA IN ORION is as much a piece of musical theater as it is an extended art song for two singing actors with accompaniment. Louise and Carrie, friends since their student days at Bryn Mawr, meet by chance after not having seen or spoken with one another in nearly seven years. They spend the afternoon at Louise’s apartment reminiscing about the past and telling clever stories of their contented and, finally and truthfully, their discontented lives. The women in The Great Nebula in Orion attempt (not always successfully) to sing emotions and sentiments that are important to them. The musical becomes as much a piece about trying to (or learning how to) "sing" as it is about a reunion of two old friends.
