The Many Deaths of Laila Starr at Works & Process at the Guggenheim
A goddess of Death, fired from heaven, learns what it means to be alive—and if this glimpse at the Guggenheim is any measure, audiences will too. The Many Deaths of Laila Starr fuses raga, Konnakol, and pulsing EDM with soaring vocal writing, sumptuous design, and incandescent dance. Minnesota Opera’s 52nd world premiere is a once-in-a-generation event. Don’t merely read about it: be in the room at the Ordway in Saint Paul, October 31–November 8, 2026.
