*Subject:* Invitation to RISE Critical-Reflection session #2 this Wednesday!



Hello,



The RISE research-creation team is very excited to invite the Milieux,
LePARC and greater Concordia/Montreal community to the second
research critical-reflection session coming up this Wednesday May 12th at
10am.



The event will begin with a 15-minute viewing session followed by an open
discussion with RISE’s creative and research crew about the opera narrative
and drama, cataclysms, collective fears, speculative research-creation,
scenario enactment, and more.



It is open to the public (with consent) and we would love to see you there!



What is RISE?


*Reflective Iterative Scenario Enactments*
Led by Dr. Eldad Tsabary and funded by Canada’s Social Sciences and
Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), Reflective Iterative Scenario
Enactments (RISE) is a Le PARC based 5-year (2020-2025) research-creation
project designed to enact and investigate cataclysmic scenarios in 10
mini-operas.

Below is a video link to *Personal Pandemic: A mini-opera-workshop*,
which premiered February 24th 2021—the first RISE mini-opera (in progress),
which was followed by an open discussion. Created and produced
collaboratively under lockdown during recent months, Personal Pandemic is
an intimate mini-opera that enacts a personal COVID-centric storyline in
Montreal.

session this wednesday, please do get in touch at info.riseopera at gmail.com and
I will send over the consent form to look over.



I look forward to seeing you there!



Best,
