More Performances of the Opera of Chris Ware’s ‘Lint’

Posted: September 20, 2014

The Spectra Ensemble are putting on two more performances of Lint, the graphic novel by American comic book legend Chris Ware, which covers the life story of Jordan Wellington Lint (1958-2023), a man excelling in wrong decisions and missed opportunities. The leitmotifs, counterpoints and other musical elements in this comic drew the attention of Walter Hus, who put the story into music, page by page. The result is a comic book opera, sung by Angélique Wilkie. Lint: The Opera will be performed in Belgium, at de Warande in Turnhout on November 21st, and at the Theatre Marni in Brussels on November 28th.
