New Camerata Opera presents The Infinite Energy of Ada Lovelace by Kamala Sankaram and Rob Handel. Immersive cabaret elements and thematically-related repertoire will be performed before and after the opera, intertwining multiple pieces into one engaging evening. The performance will run approximately 90 minutes without intermission.

This opera, composed in 2019, follows Ada, Countess of Lovelace and Lord Byron's daughter, who has been asked to help Charles Babbage with his work on the Difference Engine. She struggles between her work in mathematics and upholding her reputation as a wife, mother, and public figure. The revolutionary concepts that she put forth in her notes about the potential ability of the Engine to carry out an algorithm led Ada to be considered the world’s first computer programmer.

The cabaret will incorporate aerialist work from performer Heather Michele and Circus Director Nicki Miller. Utilizing the full spectrum of tools for storytelling, the evening will provide a transportive trip into the world of Ada Lovelace. Originally slated to produce Libby Larsen’s Barnum's Bird this spring, NCO chose to pivot to a new piece that was safer to rehearse and perform amid the challenges of the Omicron variant.
