After 7 months of working from home, 7 months without live performances, my company is producing opera again! Tonight we open a "drive-thru" opera, an immersive performance/installation adaptation of Wagner's GƶtterdƤmmerung, where, in true Detroit fashion, Brunhilde rides off in a Ford Mustang. I am so proud of my incredible colleagues and so overjoyed to be part of bringing the arts to life once again. #SeeMoreOpera #SeeMoreTheatre #MittenLitten

Lcsmcat Cool! What do you do with the Detroit Opera? 4y

Lcsmcat @Andrea313 Cool. My husband and I are both classical musicians and so many of our friends are out of work now. It‘s good to hear of a company figuring out alternatives. 4y
Andrea313 @quietjenn @TrishB @LiteraryinLititz @BarbaraBB @sharread Thanks for the kind words. It was a wonderful opening! ā¤ļøšµš¶ 4y
Andrea313 @Lcsmcat Wow, I love it! Are you instrumentalists? What do you play? 4y
Lcsmcat @Andrea313 I was an oboist, but I don‘t play professionally anymore. My husband was the bass trombonist with the Utah Symphony and Opera for 22 years, but now he‘s a church musician. He‘s been engineering music for live streamed services from tracks we record individually, so we‘re both working. But a lot of our friends aren‘t in as good a place. 4y
Andrea313 @Lcsmcat Yes, I have definitely seen how completely awful this year has been for many friends and colleagues. It's so hard. I have been working on reduced hours, but am working just the same, and I count myself as incredibly lucky. Sending you and yours all the best from afar! ā¤ļøš¶ 4y
