After my Breath
After My Breath, a love letter to Greta Thunberg, is a bold new chamber opera for solo soprano, drawn from moments in the life of climate activist Greta Thunberg.
Across six searing scenes, from a childhood filled with the glorious music of her opera singer mother, to global stages and determined acts of public protest, the opera traces one voice finding its power. Weaving together Thunberg’s story with echoes of Mozart, Puccini and Bizet, it asks what it truly means to speak when the world refuses to listen.
Written and composed by Lisa Logan, the melodic score builds from an intimate whisper to impassioned declaration. At its heart, a refrain: “I am one voice. I was never meant to be the only one.” Urgent, poetic, and deeply human.
As part of a double bill with Eden 2.0 this July 15-18 2026.
