THE WORLD IS ONE
​A ROK Commission
Premiered Season 2018-19

Composed ​by Dominick DiOrio 
Libretto by Terry Pinaud
Stage Directed by Satsu Holmes
​
A dramatic work that examines the plight of refugees, THE WORLD IS ONE poses questions from a perspective accessible to teenagers:  What is home?  What does it mean to be displaced?  How do we empathize with and support those facing such uncertainty?  This collaboration invites students into a story that questions assumptions and invites cultural inquiry.

Appropriate for middle and high school audiences | Sung in English | Performance length: approx. 25 minutes

Black lives matter. 

As an organization, ROK is striving to know better and do better. 

As artists, we hear, see, and lift up our siblings of color. 

And as human beings, we sing out that we must reimagine not only what our art form can be, but much more; what our society must be, locally, nationally, and globally.
