An opera/theater work of three interlocking stories about children lost
in the woods: Victor, a.k.a., The Wild Boy of Aveyron, a feral child
found in France in 1800 after having spent his formative years in the
wild and now lost in a forest of 'civilization'; Emily, a contemporary
girl with Autism lost in a forest of antidepressants; and Hansel and
Gretel of storybook fame, literally abandoned in the forest. Tabula
Rasa examines the effects of nature and nurture, and the fundamental
meaning of language and human relationships.
