Les Enfants Terribles (2005) by Philip Glass and Susan Marshall

Dance-opera spectacle adapted from the work of Jean Cocteau by Philip Glass and Susan Marshall, dancers and singers shared the stage in Les Enfants Terribles, the final installment of Philip Glass trilogy based on the work of Jean Cocteau. Articulating Cocteau’s belief in the transcendent power of imagination and creativity, Les Enfants is the story of Paul and Lise, two characters so caught up in a world of their own imaginings that they can no longer see a reality beyond their "game." The singers, along with eight dancers, alternately and, at times, together portrayed the action.
