WORLD PREMIERE— A Nation of Others

BY PAUL MORAVEC and MARK CAMPBELL
ROBERT PATERSON Whitman’s America

World premiere of A Nation of Others, by the Pulitzer Prize-winning team who created the enormously successful Sanctuary Road. A moving and dynamic score, A Nation of Others explores the experiences of immigrants—many of them also refugees—arriving at Ellis Island on a single day in 1921. Robert Paterson’s “quasi-fantasia” Whitman’s America presents six poems that praise nature and our role in it as both individuals and Americans.
