Witnessing @DaniHoward6's The Yellow Wallpaper - a mini opera with choreography presented by @TheOperaStory at the Lilian Baylis Studio (with two more shows tomorrow) - you realise how much her airborne music was just born to dance. @Sadlers_Wells, let her loose on the mainstage!

Dani Howard's first opera The Yellow Wallpaper premiered at the weekend in Copenhagen. It did not disappoint, even if you hold its source text dear. My review: ft.com/content/8ec2593b-6db3… #opera #cphoperafest @cphoperafest

It was late last night ... There should also have been special mentions for the other two performers physically present @TheOperaStory : baritone @DanDSouza1 (morally, though by no means vocally ambivalent here) and conductor @BerrakDyerPiano.
You know it's not yer average night at the opera when it's at Brixton Jamm and you get one of these. @TheOperaStory takes one more trip through the Magic Mirror tomorrow evening with @AitkenKatherine as Beauty, then it's the end of the toad (not a typo).
