Buenos Aires in the ‘50s. A well-known Argentinean writer Roberta Gomez retells the love story of Nina Gluckstein and a popular tango-singer Santelmo. The opera meditates on issues, such as to whom belongs a beloved artist and his love; is there such a thing as eternal love and what is the formula? Nina finds the formula but looses her life. Will eternal love survive?
Esther Vilar was born in Argentina and now lives in Spain. She is the author of 14 plays. She is best known in the UK for The Manipulated Man, her internationally bestselling analysis of sexual politics. Published in several languages, The Mathematics of Nina Gluckstein has become a bestseller in France, Spain and Germany, where it has become a cult book.
