A new musical audio drama by the Byzantine Choral Project tells the unlikely story of a child bride who rises to the heart of Byzantine power. Harboring a treasonous secret that marks her as the enemy of her husband and son, Irene must finally choose her side in the iconoclastic wars. With a haunting score inspired by Byzantine chant and featuring the voices of ten women and non-binary performers, ICONS/IDOLS: IRENE is a sweeping story of ambition, sacrifice, and the struggle to make something new out of a shattered world.
Featured in the critically acclaimed sound installation at New Ohio Theatre in NYC, this podcast was adapted from a stage play in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and recorded remotely by a cast of ten from their homes across the US. Premieres September 22 with new episodes on Wednesdays.
