Join SNF Agora Institute and Peabody Institute to enjoy Scalia/Ginsburg, an American opera by composer-librettist Derrick Wang, live on Hopkins at Home. This comedy about friendship in a divided world was inspired by the words of U.S. Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia. Directly following the radio broadcast, Professor Derrick Wang and Dean Fred Bronstein will host participants in an interactive discussion about the opera and its implications for our divided democracy. Details to join this discussion on Zoom will be provided in the confirmation email once you register. 

Please note: Hopkins at Home will access the WFMT live radio broadcast, a double bill of OperaDelaware's acclaimed production, beginning at 1pm EST with Gilbert and Sullivan's half-hour light opera Trial by Jury. Following a brief intermission featuring an interview with Derrick Wang at approximately 1:30 pm EST, Scalia/Ginsburg will air.
