Tides of Twilight
A Vampire Rock Opera
"Can love survive the discovery of what you truly are?"
THE_STORY
In a world where vampires hide in plain sight, a Progeny — turned against her will by an Ancient Vampire who still carries the guilt of her creation — falls in love with an ordinary human. Their connection is immediate and consuming, a coup de foudre that neither can explain.
As their love deepens, a fanatical Vampire Hunter closes in, her righteous fury hardening into something bestial. The Ancient, exiled from vampire society for protecting humans, watches with divided loyalties. The Vampire Court passes its ancient decree: all involved must die.
The opera's revolutionary concept: as emotions intensify, vocal growls emerge progressively from each character, revealing their true predatory nature. The Hunter — supposedly human — becomes the most bestial of all. The Progeny, protected by love, remains closest to humanity. The real monsters wear the masks of the righteous.
Inspired by Romeo and Juliet, the tragedy unfolds through fatal misunderstanding. A symphonic rock opera where love is the only shield against the beast within.

CHARACTERS
The Progeny
Vampire, Unwilling Creation
Turned against her will, she carries the weight of an existence she never chose. Love for the Human preserves her humanity — she alone resists the vocal growls that reveal the beast within.
Piano/Harp — delicate, haunted.
The Human
Ordinary Man, Unconditional Love
Senses something strange but falls in love before understanding the truth. His pure tenor voice is the opera's emotional anchor — no growls, absolute humanity.
Acoustic guitar.
The Hunter
Vampire Slayer, Fanatical Zealot
Begins as the story's apparent heroine but her righteous fury transforms into bestial fanaticism. The opera's great irony: the Hunter's growls are the most explosive of all.
Brass (trumpets, horns).
The Ancient Vampire
Exiled Protector, Guilty Creator
Centuries old, he protects humans from his own kind — a choice that exiled him from vampire society. His guilt over creating the Progeny shapes every decision he makes.
Dark strings (cello, contrabass).
The Vampire Court
Systemic Threat
Ancient society that enforces its laws with bestial certainty. Their massed choir growls from the first note.
Choir + church organ + martial percussion.
THEMES
Beast Within the Hero
The hunter becomes the monster. Vocal growls as a progressive revelation of true nature — those who claim righteousness become the most bestial.
Love as Humanity's Shield
The Progeny's love is the only force that keeps the beast at bay. Love, not morality, preserves humanity.
Fatal Misunderstanding
Romeo and Juliet's core tragedy: not hatred, but a single misread moment destroying everything.
What Makes a Monster?
Species, instinct, or choice? The opera dismantles every easy answer.
PRODUCTION_NOTE
