The Judgement of Paris - the Baroque Opera Project

Jul 14, 2006 02:45

I finally have the details about my production for everyone who's interested. We're performing John Eccles' "The Judgement of Paris", in true Baroque style, complete with period instruments, period costuming, and period gesture- that's right, we all gesture and act as though we've stepped out of a Renaissance painting, with delicate poses and graceful, grand hand gestures while portraying Grecian gods and goddesses. You'll love it! So, here are the details:
