The extraordinary journey from death to life of a remarkable woman.
As Salvador Dali's lover and one of Andy Warhol's Factory Superstars, Ultra Violet ascends from her abuse in a convent as a young French heiress, to the decadent heights of the 1960's New York City art world, to a spiritual reconciliation of Biblical proportions.
With a brilliant and sweeping score by David Conte, and a penetrating libretto by John Stirling Walker, FAMOUS breaks new ground — encapsulating an era of fame, fortune, death and redemption with stunningly original clarity and power.
