The Harvard Glee Club presents Bonhoeffer: A Choral-Theater Work
Date and Time
Location
The Harvard Glee Club presents Thomas Lloyd’s Bonhoeffer, a choral theater work on the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the 20th Century theologian who returned to Germany from the United States to resist the capitulation of the Lutheran and Catholic churches to Adolf Hitler. Through music and dramatic storytelling, the work traces Bonhoeffer’s theological convictions, moral courage, and ultimate witness against fascism.
A pre-concert panel at 7:00pm, featuring composer Thomas Lloyd, Jennifer McBride of the International Bonhoeffer Society, and Harvard Divinity School faculty members Mac Loftin and Dudley Rose, will explore Bonhoeffer’s theological legacy, his resistance to fascism, and the enduring relevance of his witness today, offering rich context for the performance to follow.
