Klorkhana: The Tyrant World Premiere of a Science Fiction Opera about a Tyrant who takes over a planet

Philadelphia, PA — “Klorkhana: The Tyrant,” will be presented in full in a concert setting.  Both book and music are written by Kate Quinn.

Klorkhana is the official Mind Healer of the planet of Sephro but instead of healing minds, he corrupts them.  He projects false love into people in exchange for stealing their energies for his own use.  His favorite thing to do is rob women of their special spiritual essences that help heal minds and bodies in ways men can’t duplicate.  Klorkhana and many men of Sephro are envious of women for having certain gifts men don’t possess.  Instead of appreciating what they have, they want what they don’t have, at any cost.  Klorkhana soon has almost every man on planet Sephro following him, particularly one susceptable young man named Aulio.  Together, he and Klorkhana are determined to steal what women have, and use it for themselves.

Only Coran, Warrior Overseer and Security Chief of the entire planet, her mate Tanna and Klorkhana’s former mate Destylla are able to form an army to stop this tyrant.  No matter what the outcome, these rebels are determined to bring Planet Sephro back to its former glory.
