On June 10–12, Music Director Esa-Pekka Salonen leads the San Francisco Symphony in a new staged production of Igor Stravinsky’s Oedipus rex and Symphony of Psalms, directed by acclaimed theater director Peter Sellars. These performances feature tenor Sean Panikkar in the title role, mezzo-soprano J’Nai Bridges as Jocasta, bass-baritone Sir Willard White as Creon/Messenger/Tiresias, tenor Jose Simerilla Romero as the Shepherd, actor Breezy Leigh as Antigone, dancer Laurel Jenkins, and the San Francisco Symphony Chorus. The Sellars-Salonen production also features visual design, in part informed by the sculptures of Ethiopian artist Elias Sime, which Sellars called “haunting and spiritually potent.”
