Titania’s Attendants (2025)

This mini-opera was conceived by A.J. Ramsey for the Longy School of Music Opera Creation Lab. The libretto was co-written by A.J. Ramsey, Lena MacLean Lofquist, and Joey Timmons. The story is an imagined B-plot of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, where Queen Titania’s fairy attendants wonder about her newfound love interest—a human named Bottom with the head of a donkey. It was premiered on May 13, 2025.

Premiered by Devyn Kerr (Peaseblossom), Lena MacLean Lofquist (Cobweb), Abbey Diana Engelmann (Moth), and Giovanna Spiotti (Mustardseed). Stage directed by A.J. Ramsey and Chen Wine
