Gone to the dogs: Mutts star in canine operas
BANGOR — What could be more ridiculous than a pack of dogs dressed in silly costumes and “lip-synching” to classic opera on Zoom?
Or should I say, what could be more ingenious? Or should I say both?
Theater, dog and/or opera lovers will get a chance to determine this for themselves by checking out what is perhaps Penobscot Theatre Company’s most outrageous pandemic production, thus far. The Dog Operas is a series of three operatic virtual shorts.
One of these canine operas, “The Barker of Seville,” is already streaming. “Tosca the Ball” will debut April 6 and “Dog Giovanni” is set for May.
