X: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF MALCOLM X
(Anthony Davis)
Tuesday, January 30th at 12pm
Run Time: 3 hours 20 minutes

Content Advisory: X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X contains strong language.

Anthony Davis’s first opera, X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X dramatizes the life of the civil rights icon, but rather than explain, let alone beatify, its subject, the work is primarily focused on his personal transformation. It is also the journey of his audience and how they have perceived him, from victim of poverty to leader-agitator to martyr. Neither the music nor the libretto seeks to console nor superficially inspire, but always to engage and intrigue.
