Steven Schoenberg, Composer

Dear Edvard is set in Dr. Jacobsen’s Clinic for Nervous Disorders and Alcoholism, where the artist, Edvard Munch, committed himself in 1908. His young nurse, now elderly, confesses her long ago passion for her famous patient, and transports us back to the beginnings of psychoanalysis, sexual liberation, and the birth of modern art. Equal parts music theatre, performance art and gallery installation, Dear Edvard is an intimate, 80-minute piece – an art history biopic, love story, psychological exploration, and family drama.
