As the effects of climate change command our attention in real life, the crisis has also become a subject for creative self-expression. “Our Sacred World: An Opera with Dance” is a fantasy based on reality, written as a love letter to Mother Earth. Amy Leventhal created the libretto and composed the music for “Our Sacred World,” which will be performed on Saturday, Jan. 21, in the Cole Auditorium of the Fine Arts Building at Georgia State University Perimeter College.
Amy Leventhal joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes via Zoom along with stage director Lauren Morris to talk about the opera and the opportunity it presents for a conversation about climate.
