Do you think opera in its standard form isn’t outlandish enough? Well, SF Opera Lab, the innovative new wing of the comparatively staid San Francisco Opera, is about to bring a little cross-dressing Halloween cheer onto the musical scene.
“Drag Queen of the Opera,” the company’s latest pop-up endeavor, promises a night of musical and macabre debauchery, with “gals, ghouls and divas in drag.”
Presided over by drag artist Heklina, the lineup includes soprano Julie Adams, mezzo-soprano Renée Rapier, tenor Brenton Ryan, bass-baritone Brad Walker and pianist Jennifer Szeto.
