DIY Opera

I'm not sure I would care to hear the result, but the School of Life in London offers a 1-day workshop on November 20th called DIY Opera In A Day. No musical experience is required. Topics covered include "stopping the audience from killing you" & "upstaging." The day culminates in an improvised grand operatic performance, listed on the schedule as "Cocktails and final performance." Food & drink are included in the £110 price.

This establishment also hosts Listening to Music with Alex Ross on the evening of November 29th, which makes me totally wish I lived in London.
