Primero Sueño

I am excited to announce the opening of “Primero Sueño”, a processional opera honoring the work of Mexican poet Sor Juana, the world’s very first feminist. 

From the visionary minds of Paola Prestini, Magos Herrera, and Louisa Proske comes “Primero Sueño,” a deeply symbolic and spiritual artistic endeavor debuting at the Met Cloisters in New York. The opera is inspired by Mexican poet Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’s magnum opus of the same name. Published in 1692, the 975-line poem weaves themes of mysticism and feminism and connection to the natural world with beautiful prose. First performances take place 23.-26.01.2025.
