THE LAST 7 DAYS OF OBSIDIENNE OBSURD is a multidisciplinary experimental performance that aims to queer classical concert conventions as well as elevate Drag performance out of the realm of nightlife and onto a large-scale symphonic stage. It tells OBSIDIENNE's personal story of gender transition alongside the migration story of their Chinese ancestors to America.

This new work includes a world premier of an original composition developed in collaboration with Paul Wiancko of the Kronos Quartet.
