The Seasons Philadelphia Premiere Music by Antonio Vivaldi Based on The Four Seasons with additional arias and ensembles by Vivaldi Libretto by Sarah Ruhl  Co-Conceived by Anthony Roth Costanzo and Sarah Ruhl In collaboration with Pam Tanowitz and Zack Winokur Directed by Zack Winokur, Choregraphed by Pam Tanowitz Developed by SCENE and AMOC* Performed in English, Italian, and Latin with English supertitles You could say Vivaldi had a kind of synesthesia when writing The Four Seasons. What does being cold feel and sound like? MacArthur Award-winning playwright and librettist Sarah Ruhl joins Anthony Roth Costanzo to co-conceive a tapestry of Vivaldi’s music, telling an original story about a world in which the seasons are completely out of order. Tony Award-winning set designer Mimi Lien collaborates with M.I.T. materials technologist Jack Forman to fuse art and science, bringing atmospheric events to the stage. Celebrated choreographer Pam Tanowitz creates a maelstrom of dance, director Zack Winokur helms the production, and Corrado Rovaris conducts the rapturous piece, which stars Costanzo. All tickets are Pick Your Price, starting at $11. Any amount above $11 helps support other operagoers and the work we present on stage. In addition, $10 rush tickets will be available before the performance.
