"The Ant Opera came to me when I learned that a queen ant can live to be thirty years old. How many of her lovers and children does she see die? Broken hearts, death, palace intrigue, this is the stuff of a great opera. These set designs are rooms in the ant cities that lie beneath the surface. There is the Queen's Chambers, the Communication Center, the Grand Ball Room, the Nursery and more. Ant world is linked to civilizations on other planets." - Trent Harris.
