Libertaria: The Virtual Opera is a moving animated musical about the teen Libertaria who escapes from a genetics factory and teams up with her addict father in a post-USA dystopia. Created by filmmaker and award-winning composer Sabrina Pena Young, Libertaria: The Virtual Opera is an innovative and groundbreaking opera produced entire online and combining a dramatic cinematic score with rock opera vocals in the style of Repo: The Genetic Opera and Les Miserables. 


"It sounds like a graphic novel, and it looks like one, especially with its cartoon balloons taking the place of supertitles. As a story, it is very much in line with the good-vs.-evil sci-fi tradition, with the added bonus of a plucky female heroine." - Greg Stepanich, Palm Beach Arts Paper
