The Grand Old Opera House Hotel

T960254522
The Grand Old Opera House Hotel has seen better days. It used to be a magnificent Opera House, whose stage was graced by the great sopranos and baritones of the age. Nowadays, it's fist fights that shatter glasses, the only divas are the ones who check-in and there's not a single romantic hero to be found. When shy Aaron joins the hotel's ramshackle team he's faced with emotionally volatile guests, apathetic staff and inept management. Not to mention the rumour of a pair of singing ghosts haunting the corridors. Yet, amongst the chaos Aaron overhears a beautiful, mysterious singer, who captures his heart as well as his ears. It belongs to his colleague Jay, an operatic anorak with high hopes and low expectations for herself. Drawn inexorably together by strange music floating through the hallways, Aaron and Jay search for each other through chaotic corridors and among the absurd guests, never able to catch each other but knowing they are fated to be together.
