For Nova Linea’s spring concert, “Love Is A Game,” Artistic Director Jared Baker presents two evocative, full-length works inspired by distinct musical artists.The evening opens with a new creation set to Bon Iver’s acclaimed debut album, “For Emma, Forever Ago.” This poignant work delves into themes of isolation, loneliness, and pain, mirroring the album’s origins. Crafted during a harsh Wisconsin winter in a cabin north of Eau Claire, Justin Vernon’s deeply personal compositions recount a transformative chapter in his life, bringing a sense of raw authenticity to the stage.
Closing the program is a revival of Nova Linea’s audience favorite, “Love Is A Game.” Choreographed by Jared Baker to the music of Adele, this moving piece reflects on the profound effects of divorce and heartache. Told through the perspective of a woman, it explores her escape from a toxic relationship, the ripple effects on her son, and her journey toward healing and self-discovery.
