With lyric opera of kansas city

Great visionaries only reveal themselves in hindsight. 

In a production as daring and innovative as the man who inspired it, this opera explores the life of Steve Jobs on his journey from hippie idealist to tech icon. Every piece of Jobs’s life reveals more of the puzzle, as we try to discern how a person whose devices have connected us in so many ways could struggle to make meaningful connections with the people closest to him. Beneath the towering Silicon Valley legend, and between the lines of ones and zeroes, is the story of a complicated human being whose public revelations changed the world, and whose personal demons had lasting consequences.
