IRT Theater’s staging of “Sacred and Profane Love,” a new experimental opera, presents a unique environment for meditation on the mystic.

Based on Bernie Langs’s 2021 music composition, IRT Theater’s staging of “Sacred and Profane Love” presents a unique environment for meditation on the mystic and interpersonal struggles between earthly and celestial love. The original lyrics, alluding at times to passages penned by history’s finest writers and poets, will be sung live by six vocalists to the song’s backing track. The show’s accompanying video features films and photos of beautiful art, architecture, and landscapes taken at home and abroad by Bernie and his wife, Joanne. By combining dance, music, film, and vocal elements, Sacred and Profane Love promises to be a lively, positive experience for all.
