Musicians playing during ‘Drifting Dragons’ (2016) street opera
It’s all coming together for Cosi Fan Tutte Street Opera! We’re super excited to announce our performance dates across the borough of Merton with the starting point in each area. The first scene will take place in the place mentioned below but we’ll shortly be moving on to the next local business for the next scene. So come prepared to follow the story along the high street with scenes taking place in a variety of different businesses with just a short walk in between. We’ve got some crackers of places this year! It’ll be huge fun.
Running time is about an hour but don’t forget, you’re free to stay for as long or as little as you like. So if you’ve never seen opera before but can only stay for 10mins just come watch the first scene – what have you got to lose?!
And of course please do come and say hi! We’d love to know what you think of the performance – if you already love opera, we’d love to know what you make of our unusual adaptation, and if you’ve never seen opera before we’d love to know what you thought. Just come say hi to any of our team wearing Baseless Fabric t-shirts.
We look forward to seeing you very soon for some opera in the pub, cafe, library, supermarket, shop or bus stop and don’t be too surprised if the person next to you starts singing!
