In the opera\, we follow the journey of Orna\, a trans-woman\, as she grapples with self-acceptance. She travels to the north of Michigan\, guided by the Mother of Trees\, to transform into the white pine that sits upon Chapel Rock at the edge of Lake Superior\, overlooking it all.  \nCreative Team:  \nGrey Grant – Composer\, Librettist \nKarl Ronneburg – Director\, Music Director\, Dramaturg \nPeter Littlejohn – Sound Design \nEmily Yang – Lighting Design \nMaya Johnson – Crafts Design \nTanner Porter – Cover Art \nCast: \nAllison Prost – Orna\, As She Sees Herself \nGrey Grant – Orna\, As She Feels She is Seen \nKate Moss\, Kara Huckabone\, Samantha Kao – Mother of Trees \nMusicians: \nConverge New Music: Megan Rohrer\, Malhar Kute – violins; Ryan McDonald – viola; Hanna Brooke Rumora – cello \nDanielle Gonzalez\, Sofia Carbonara – percussion \nProduced by Fifth Wall Performing Arts\, supported in part by the School of Music\, Theater\, and Dance Meta Weiser EXCEL Fund
