OperaShots returns to ROH2 and invites leading contemporary talent from other fields to break the mould and take a brand new shot at opera. Lasting about half an hour each,
OperaShots is short, sharp and experimental and offers a new angle on opera, for both experienced opera lovers and opera virgins.
OperShots is part of an ongoing programme of opera development work across the Royal Opera House which ranges from full-scale commissions to development workshops, courses and observer programmes.
The Doctor’s Tale is a tale of a devoted doctor, whose patients love him and who has a wonderful cure rate, but the General Medical Council say he has to stop practising because he's a dog. The patients protest and eventually rescue the doctor from the Dog Pound, where he was due to be put down.
