That is for sure, marlb, lat, and kd. And I promise you I'm not goin away, not anytime soon! Because after the BBQ, there's Alberta, and then sfericsf is talking about a viewing in San Francisco in August, and I  haven't met any Eurobrokies yet, and...

 ;D



And  I just read in the Dutch play thread that the director might be mounting an opera of BBM in London next year.  GOTTA go to that!  :)

Tell you what, BBM is the perfect source for an opera.

You may not have to wait that long, Jeff. I heard that Matthew Bourne is working on a gay Romeo and Juliet, called Romeo and Romeo. Can BBM, the Ballet, be far behind??

I read that about Matthew Bourne doing the gay Romeo and Juliet. There was a very nice profile of him in (where else?  ;D) The New Yorker recently.

I know I used the Grin smiley, but I wasn't really kidding about the ballet. I'm not just thinking a love duet pas de deux for Ennis and Jack, either. I'm thinking that a talented and skillful choreographer could do a lot with the whole story. For example, I'm thinking of the possibility of a very powerful solo portraying Alma's confusion when she sees her husband kissing a man, and another, and potentially very moving solo portraying her sorrow as her marriage deteriorates. Lots of possibilities here!  :)

How about BBM, the cable TV series?  :D  That would get me to subscribe to HBO!

But operas are so tragic. Fits in so well with BBM.  Will there be gods?? Can just hear Alma doing an aria after she see Jack and Ennis having a reunion kisss.


The word deceased being sung over and over again. Deceased, Deceased!   The setting, i.e. the great outdoors is certaily worthy of opera.  Can't see them doing ballet on the moutain.  ;)

Though they do fly on the euphoric, bitter air.  (I think that's the quote.)

There would have to be tumbling and rolling - maybe Pilobolus could do it at the special broadcast of the First-Ever Academy Awards Retraction and Rectification Show, where they fix their 2006 @#$%-up.  :)
