Composer: World Premiere of Sense of Self
Opera Elect presents the World Premiere of Sense of Self, Lisa's opera written with Kendra Preston Leonard. Triathlete Maya’s hopes for the coming race season come to a sudden halt when she is diagnosed with breast cancer and must decide between surgical options. Her coach, Naomi, is ready to tackle recovery and reconditioning with a positive attitude and the latest wellness trends, but Maya isn’t ready for those yet. She has to consider how her choice impacts her entire future—as an athlete and as a whole person.
Sense of Self gives voice to the power and joy of female athleticism, the strength of women’s friendships, and to the challenging decisions women must make when confronted with breast cancer. The opera explores the impact of cancer on women’s sense of empowerment, plans for the future, family obligations, and self-image, and offers a vision of strength and hope for reinvention and renewal.

Performer: Selections from The Chez L'aisselle, part of Fertile Ground Play Festival
Lisa performs as Helena and Grace in a reading of selections from a new comedic operetta, The Chez l'Aisselle, by Zach Hudson, as part of Fertile Ground Festival. Snooty restaurateur D'Oyly Fitzgibbon thinks his new Portland restaurant is going to bring haute cuisine to new heights, especially as a food critic is coming to review the restaurant that night. Suddenly his daughter Helena shows up, announcing her engagement to lowbrow celebrity chef Sparky Phipps ("the famous-est chef on TV"). Then a new cook accidentally gives the kitchen staff food poisoning, and the food critic turns out to be D’Oyly’s ex-wife, bent on revenge. It falls to a creative sous-chef, Sue (in love with Helena), to recruit Maroun and his son Nassim (in love with Sue), from the food cart outside, to save the day.
