Synopsis:  The Great Comet is a Electro-pop opera that is entirely sung through and based on a section of the classic novel, "War and Peace". The story involves young and impulsive, Natasha Rostova, who arrives in Moscow to await the return of her fiancé from the front lines. When she falls under the spell of the roguish Anatole, it is up to Pierre, a family friend in the middle of an existential crisis, to pick up the pieces of her shattered reputation.
