An opera. About anthropomorphic monkeys. With lyrics based on ancient Chinese texts and performed in Mandarin. This all amounts to what might be one of
Johnny's all-time favorite things. (Minus, of course, the bit about being an opera, and the singing in Mandarin.)
By the same people who brought you the
Gorillaz,
Monkey: Journey to the West might be the greatest opera you've ever seen about a monkey-king seeking redemption from his god.
And tickets would be available ... when?
so is this an actual, physical opera, or a movie? (sorry, totally out of the loop here)
iheartbeijing, what are you going to call yourself after the Olympics?
same thing, I live here ;)
ok
