Other stage works by Paul Barker
With each of my ten previous operas, I have explored different facets , different worlds of music theatre:
to real-life exposé of political and corporate corruption in Dirty Tricks (1997);
from an opera performed by children for adults in Stone Angels (1998)
to an opera designed for the internet, The Mechanical Operation of the Spirit (1999).
Some operas use several languages, others experiment with new venues, such as on the water or in shopping centres, others exploit street theatre and circus forms. Up until now, all were experiments in fusing language, voice and theatre.
Nye Tand, Eh? strikes out boldly in a new direction.
