It's pretty unbelievable. As a composer, I'm about the internal story and what the ear receives. Adding in the theatrical element with costumes, set design, staging and the correlated technical challenges of writing for an orchestra in a pit (as opposed to out on top of the stage) is FASCINATING. I've fallen in love with this world (the singers cast, including the understudies, and the chorus are awesome) and hope that this is not the only opera project I'm offered.

Thanks for asking!
