Eleanor Digital Release
November 19-December 31, 2026
A Medieval scandal comes to visit.
After two sold-out performances at New Stage Performance Space, Alkemie’s queer Medieval chamber opera Eleanor is available to view as a digital concert.
Written by Alkemie’s Niccolo Seligmann and starring non-binary soprano Elisse Albian, Eleanor takes inspiration from the true story of Eleanor Rykener, whose arrest in London in 1394 left the authorities puzzling over how to categorize her gender and what to charge her with. Blending Medieval music, contemporary composition, and a little creative license, Eleanor explores lives that don't fit neatly into history’s boxes.
Available to watch at your leisure through December 31, 2026.
Content warning: Eleanor tells the real-life story of a sex worker, and features frank language about sex as well as mimed sexual acts. This show might not be appropriate for younger viewers (we recommend that attendees be 18+), or those uncomfortable with more explicit themes.
All tickets are general admission.
