Singing Gay Cowboys!

"Brokeback Mountain" is being turned into an opera by New York City Opera. You know, because it's not gay enough. A spokesbitch for the opera house said they have commissioned composer Charles Wuorinen to write an opera based on Annie Proulx's short story. It will premiere in 2013.

Charles Wuorinen issued this statement to Reuters: "Ever since encountering Annie Proulx's extraordinary story I have wanted to make an opera on it, and it gives me great joy that Gerard Mortier and New York City Opera have given me the opportunity to do so."

I'm okay with this as long as they get Placido Domingo and Paul Potts to star. Imagine those two sexy beasts dressed as cowboys and licking up on each other. Raw sex on the stage! They would have to hand out baby wipes and condoms at the door.

Wonder which one will be the "Pre Madonna."

I only just saw the movie a few weeks ago & I was really impressed. The only thing that let it down for me was that Heath seemed to mumble his lines & I couldn't really hear him.

IMO it doesn't need to be turned in an opera or a broadway show.

I saw the movie, and thought it was really lame.
I just didn't get what the hype was about.
BUUUUT, if they have to make an opera out of it, they need to put Andrea Bocelli in it. I know he's blind, but I heard he swings both ways.
