Luminato and TO LIVE Present Scott Joplin’s Treemonisha

The Luminato Festival and TO Live present Scott Joplin’s Treemonisha produced by Volcano Theatre in association with the Canadian Opera Company, Soulpepper and Moveable Beast.

A 21st-century reimagining of the sole surviving opera by the “King of Ragtime”.

The new work combines original source material from Treemonisha (c.1911) with the artistry of major Black artists working today in Canada, the United States and the UK.
