SOMETHING BLUE: THE BACHELOR OPERA

Schmopera

Sep 4, 2019 — 1 min read

If you liked Connection Lost (The Tinder Opera), you’ll love the latest collaboration between composer/tenor Scott Joiner and writer/director Adam Taylor. Something Blue: The Bachelor Opera is another misguided love story, unpacking everything that’s totally bizarre about reality dating & marriage shows. Joiner sings the role of the Bachelor, and soprano Jessica Fishenfeld is his new – and perfect – bride.

Joiner and Taylor’s latest work is a compact, clever, and cute approach to combining film and opera; there’s great singing, and attention to detail that keeps you watching.

Quick note: there are scenes that may not be safe for work (depending on where you work).
