Stephen King\u2019s The Shining has been adapted into an incredibly scary, horror\u2026 opera! Pulitzer Prize and Grammy Award-winning librettist Mark Campbell joins to explain how he translated the 600-page novel into a terrifying tale sung by some of the most powerful voices in the world all with Stephen King\u2019s blessing! Mark talks about the process of writing the opera, collaborating with brilliant composer Paul Moravec and stage director Brian Staufenbiel to bring it to life in the confines of an opera house stage! He reveals which famous scenes make the opera version (redrum anyone?), how the Torrance Family is depicted onstage (someone dies but not who you think), the surprise hero left standing at the end (any guesses?), and why comedic moments are so important to this piece. Plus, Mark talks about the differences between old-school Italian opera and newer American opera, why it\u2019s okay to sing in English, and the impact that the success of The Shining has had on the opera industry to date.\n\nPurchase tickets to The Shining at the Atlanta Opera: https://www.atlantaopera.org/performance/the-shining-2023/\n\nThank you for supporting our sponsors!\nFan Duel: Visit https://FanDuel.com/JERICHO and start earning Bonus Bets with America\u2019s #1 Sportsbook\nHello Fresh: Go to https://HelloFresh.com/50JERICHO and use code 50JERICHO to get 50% off plus 15% off your next two months.\nFactor Meals: Go to https://FactorMeals.com/TIJ50 and use promo code TIJ50 to get 50% off.\nBosch Tools: Learn more at https://www.boschtools.com/us/en/ \nProgressive: Quote today at https://progressive.com \neBay Motors: Get the right parts, the right fit, and the right prices. https://ebaymotors.com \nSlingTV: Check out https://www.sling.com/ for special offers \n\nSTAY CONNECTED:\nTikTok: @ChrisJericho\nInstagram: @talkisjericho @chrisjerichofozzy \nTwitter: @TalkIsJericho @IAmJericho\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ChrisJerichoFozzy \nWebsite: https://www.webisjericho.com/
