The Moon Has Made Us Brothers chronicles the struggles of the tragic clown figure Pierrot as he suffers through maturity and transformation. Reeling from social rejection, he tries to lose himself in melancholy, intoxication, religion, and violence, only to discover his true self at the end of the journey. Told as a narrative dance-opera, The Moon Has Made Us Brothers is derived from ‘Pierrot Lunaire’, a cycle of poems by Albert Giraud using characters from the Commedia Dell’arte.

The Moon Has Made Us Brothers had its premiere on February 24, 2018 at the Lund Theater at the California Institute of the Arts.
