|Royal Opera House to present Twitter show
As part of the Deloitte Ignite 09 season, the Royal Opera House, Time Out and Deloitte will be using 'tweets' submitted to the blogging site Twitter to create the story for a new production.
The comments made by users of Twitter will be set to original music by composer Helen Porter, as well as some familiar operatic themes.
Excerpts will be performed at the Royal Opera House during the Deloitte Ignite 09 season.
Alison Duthie, a spokeswoman for the Royal Opera House, said: "It's the people's opera and the perfect way for everyone to become involved with the inventiveness of opera as the ultimate form of storytelling.
"Expect the unexpected. Who knows how the story will evolve, but get tweeting and you can play your part in your opera."
The Deloitte Ignite 09 season will run from September 4th to 6th this year.
