Created by composer Ron Ramin and librettist/producer Portia Kamons, SEVENTEEN conveys the recent experiences of young Americans as they confront an unprecedented range of challenges, from gun violence to climate change, and offers a glimpse of what it means to be on the cusp of adulthood in America today.

SEVENTEEN features a libretto of verbatim text from interviews with young activists. The four-movement piece speaks powerfully to their generation’s spirit and determination. Attend a special Q&A after the performance with the creators of the work, as well as Music Director Eric Jacobsen and others involved in the project.

Due to the mature topics included in this piece, this performance is not recommended for young children.

Ms. Coverini is one of the six narrators.

This performance is a free event open to the public. Reservation is required:

The performance will be at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts in Steinmetz Hall | Orlando, FL
