Paul Moravec and Mark Campbell’s The Shining
Runtime: approximately 2 hours, including one 20-minute intermission
Content Advisory:
- Strong language
- Themes of sex and brief depiction of nudity
- Onstage fighting, violence, and murder
Although The Shining promises an unforgettable experience during the Halloween season, we do not recommend this opera for young children, though it may be appropriate for older teens. This production includes several frightening scenes, mentions of suicide, acts of violence with various weapons, depictions of domestic violence, frequent references to alcohol and drunkenness, eerie supernatural scenes, strong language, depictions of nudity, and some lighthearted sexual innuendos.
