Just saw Aquanetta @PROTOTYPEfest! Who wouldn't love an opera that opens with a heavy metal screaming eyeball and has enough buckets of blood to make @therealjoebob happy?

@PROTOTYPEfest @therealjoebob Also, the staging was incredible: the performance was filmed, live, in a closed box on stage and projected onto a large screen. The star sat in a chair directly in front of the camera, both of which were on a turntable that continuously rotated. This was only revealed at the end.
