Get ready to be captivated! We invite you to join fellow Mount Holyoke alums for The Handmaid's Tale at the San Francisco Opera. Based on the landmark novel by Margaret Atwood, this intense operatic drama brings Atwood’s dystopian vision to life with stunning music and powerful staging and offers a thought-provoking exploration of autonomy, resistance, and resilience—themes that align beautifully with the Mount Holyoke spirit. For a glimpse of what SF Opera has to offer, check out previews of the powerful show throughout the Bay Area in early September.
Why You Should Attend
A Bold Artistic Statement: Experience a dramatic reinterpretation of a literary classic, created by a visionary team of artists, including composer Poul Ruders and librettist Paul Bentley.
Connect with Fellow Alums: Join a community of fellow Mount Holyoke graduates for a afternoon of culture and conversation. This is a wonderful opportunity to reconnect, network, and share in a memorable experience together.
Celebrate Mount Holyoke Values: Embrace the values of empowerment and social justice that Mount Holyoke champions, as depicted in this powerful narrative.
We look forward to seeing you there and sharing this extraordinary experience with you!
