About the composer Du Yun, there is a lot to say. Born and raised in Shanghai, currently based in New York, she won the Pulitzer Prize in 2017 for her haunting opera Angel’s Bone. Her bio describes her as “a multi-instrumentalist, performance artist, activist, and curator for new music, who works at the intersection of orchestral, opera, chamber music, theatre, cabaret, musical theater, oral tradition, public performances, sound installation, electronics, visual arts, and noise.” The New Yorker has saluted Du Yun for her “relentless originality and unflinching social conscience”; not to fall behind, The New York Times has touted her onstage persona as “an indie pop diva with an avant-garde edge.” Du Yun’s latest venture, a monodrama, stars Nathan Gunn as a father-to-be revealed through a journal he is writing as a gift to his unborn daughter. —Matthew Gurewitsch
