The Two Gay Geeks have a chat with each other about several things we have been watching like the return of Star Trek: Picard and Star Trek: Discovery. We also chat about an incredible experience we had at the Celebrity Theater here in Phoenix, where we had a meet and greet with Rick Wakeman, keyboardist extraordinaire. we also chat about the Arizona Opera production of Stephen Sondheim's A Little Night Music as well as several other projects they have going. Have a listen and we hope you enjoy this as much as we did.

Carmen: The Graphic Novel
Perhaps the most famous opera in history, Georges Bizet’s Carmen premiered in 1875 at the Opéra-Comique in Paris. The four-act opera, featuring a libretto written by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy and adapted from the novella by Prosper Mérimée, remains one of the most exciting and popular works in the repertoire. And now, nearly 150 years later, the story of Carmen is being adapted again — this time as CARMEN: THE GRAPHIC NOVEL, written by opera singer and director Alek Shrader and illustrated by legendary artist P. Craig Russell (Neil Gaiman’s American Gods) and Aneke, and lettered by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. Arizona Opera will be launching a Kickstarter campaign for this ambitious adaptation early next year with a pre-launch page live now.
