THE WEB OPERA
Michael Roth
THE WEB OPERA, a through-sung web-series experiment in new opera and film based on true events, tells of a group of freshmen and an invasion of privacy that forever alters a young violinist's life. Most important, composer Michael Roth & his collaborators, via thewebopera.com, hope to raise awareness of cyber-abuse and support suicide prevention. Called “groundbreaking” and praised for its “high voltage music,” we’ve been an official selection at 30 film festivals. Stay tuned for Episodes 4 & 5!
