In response to my request, Passion with Tropes was revised by Don Freund for immersive theater in 2010, in fact creating a new work of incredible power and immediacy out of his earlier impressive oratorio. The roster of collaborating artists was a dream team including Susanne Schwibs, Robert Shakespeare, Margaret Dolinsky, Elizabeth Shea, Paul Brunner, Ed Dambik, Jonathan Courtemanche and the Contemporary Vocal Ensemble at Indiana University. Some excerpts and the complete version can be found below
