Hungry Opera Machine
In 2013 Eric Stern founded Hungry Opera Machine. Here’s a description of the opera company’s mission:
To produce contemporary opera and theater in English casting primarily from the talent pool of the Portland Oregon community and the Northwest. To extend the operatic tradition by choosing operas that not only conform to the classical standard but also ones that may include other forms of music such as jazz and music from everywhere. We also add more than a dash of Dell ‘Arte!
