If they can redo some operas to perform them in Klingon, I think someone whould at least attempt this.

*gigglesnort* Are people seriously doing that? How did I never hear of that? Klingon is in beta at Duolingo; I gave up on French last year, but I might start up again just for that. And I really should learn Spanish anyway.

I just Googled "Klingon opera" and found a production in Germany. Just a five minute clip, but HOLY COW.

I can envision puppets, marionettes, trap doors, and hanging stuff from the rafters for a live performance of Star Wars. I think it would be a blast. (Literally, if they blew a Death Star model apart like a pinata with fireworks inside.)

I really like this trilogy. Doescher seems to have moved onto the prequels, so I'll read those eventually, too.
