The Blue Woman Bowler

The Blue Woman is a new opera directed by Katie Mitchell that explores the psychological aftermath of sexual violence on women. 

Facilitated by Lisa Peck, this Insight brings together composer Laura Bowler, librettist Laura Lomas, director Katie Mitchell and singer Gweneth Ann Rand, to discuss the making of this work and open an important conversation about how opera deals with violence against women.

A powerful new opera by award-winning director Katie Mitchell, co-produced by Britten Pears Arts and The Royal Opera House.

The Blue Woman is a brand new opera composed by Laura Bowler with librettist Laura Lomas. It is a though-provoking and poetic work, and sparks a conversation about how operas deal with violence against women, and our modern day understanding of this reality.

The Blue Woman excavates the interior landscape of one woman, who has experienced a post-traumatic shattering of self as a consequence of being raped. It follows her as she searches a nameless city looking for what was taken.

Wrapped around the central spine of the story are fragments of text, from other women of different ages, who have all been victims of sexual violence. Formally experimental, the structure of the opera mirrors the journey of fracture and reform that the Woman goes on.

The Blue Woman provokes a conversation between how operas deal with violence against women and our modern day understanding of this reality.
