Muck the Opera

The story of a young boy who undergoes a transformation like no other

Prelude - The Making of Muck…

Michael was a strange boy, but none knew of his inner being; a lady in waiting…

Opening scene, a young boy, in street rat clothing enters stage right, to a dimly lit London street (circa. early 1900s)

A ghostly older woman holding a gleaming letter opener in one hand (Eliza) steps into the spotlight..

(to the tune of Nature Boy - David Bowie)

Eliza
There was a boy, a very strange entrancing boy
Although I tried to help his cause
help his cause
To make him a Lady.

A little child, now gone from trial
Evil took him from me

I curse that day, that magic day, he passed my way
And while she dreamt of many things, foolish things
She always trusted me

Ashamed am I
I let her die
I wear this now

Forever bound, to my Lady!
