Sponsored by the Princeton Departments of Music and Classics, the Lewis Center for the Arts and The Program in Gender and Sexuality Studies, this thesis production involved over 50 Princeton University students as performers, orchestra members and production staff with two guest student performers from Westminster Choir College.
