Behind the Scenes with rock opera WEIGHTLESS, a commission conceived and written by Kate Kilbane and Dan Moses.
Directed by Becca Wolff and presented by Z Space, Encore Theatre Company, and piece by piece productions. Weightless builds on The Kilbanes’ distinct style: a genre-bending theatrical event that combines intimate storytelling with a high-energy rock show. Weightless is an adaptation of the story of Procne and Philomela found in Ovid’s Metamorphoses: two sisters bound by deep love are separated by a vengeful god and must travel across worlds to find their way back together. In Weightless, the cast and the band are one and the same, blurring the line between actors and musicians, between straight musical theater and concert.
