Star Trek Opera
1 min read
Next year, Chattanooga’s Scenic City Opera will feature Mozart and Star Trek.
Artistic Director/Founder Laura Sage has announced two shows for next year, and one of them, Mozart’s Abduction from the Seraglio will be Trek-themed.
Mozart’s Abduction from the Seraglio will be performed as an episode of Star Trek and will feature Klingons, Vulcans and more.
“It’s just going to be the most wonderful reimagining of the opera,” said Shaw. “I felt like this show was a great way to introduce the company and get people interested.”
Mozart’s Abduction from the Seraglio is tentatively scheduled for June 2015. Auditions for the production will be held in January.
About The Author
*blink* Wow, that’s … different. But the things that the characters say and do in this opera, are they things that Star Trek characters would say and do? If not, then just dressing them in a Starfleet uniform doesn’t make it Star Trek. (One hopes that the makers of the new movies will keep this in mind…)
Please keep me informed about the progress of the opera. Thanks.
