Merging the vanguard of Polish theatre artists with America's most innovative contemporary music composers, Mozart's Sister tells the story of the keyboard virtuoso, composer, and child prodigy in her own right - Nannerl Mozart. This other Mozart toured throughout Europe, performing side by side with her brother Amadeus, to equal acclaim. Yet none of her compositions have survived and today hardly anyone knows she existed. Using Nannerl's own letters and those of her family, the performance investigates how this female prodigy, this Mozart, faded from the world - and whether this loss was inevitable.
Miller hosts three performances during the festival's opening weekend, featuring the acclaimed ensembles eighth blackbird, Either/Or, and a marathon concert hosted by JACK quartet.
