It may be an American opera, but Dark Sisters could hardly feel more local. The community of Bountiful, B.C., and its leader, Winston Blackmore, lurk in the background of every scene of Nico Muhly’s study of a polygamous family thrown into crisis as the children are taken into state care and the patriarch makes for the desert to seek guidance from God. Amiel Gladstone directs, with soprano Melanie Krueger playing Eliza, the wife whose revelations to a TV crew precipitate a crisis within the family. And look for Tom Goerz as the self-styled “Prophet.”Dark Sisters, Nov.26-Dec.12Tickets: $35-$99, 604-683-0222Playhouse Theatre, 600 Hamilton St, 604-665-3050
