From the circus to sanctuary, an elephant journeys to freedom.
Based on a true story, Sanctuary Song explores the story of Sydney, an elephant whose remarkable journey culminates in her release into a sanctuary.
Written by the award-winning team of librettist Marjorie Chan 陳以珏 and composer Abigail Richardson-Schulte, Sanctuary Song is a story for audiences of all ages that uncovers powerful truths in the life of a remarkably resilient elephant. Directed by Michael Hidetoshi Mori, with Music Direction by Gregory Oh, and featuring original choreography by Aria Evans, audiences enter a circus and leave with the song of elephants in their ear.
