David Cronenberg will be directing the debut of an opera based on
The Fly, the short story by George Langelaan that has twice been a film.
Since we don’t have an opera icon, I improvised. Sorry if I misled all of you BrownCoats.
The opera features music by Howard Shore and a libretto by David Henry Hwang.
I have gotten more laughs from the title of this article …
Whoever thought of it, it’s a very good title. There’s an image in my head of a big fat fly with golden braids wearing a Viking helmet going BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ to a flourish of horns. :)
Thank you very much. :)
