GRINDR
The Opera
Now’s the time to grab your tickets to the hilarious parody of the infamous hook-up app: GRINDR! With several different types of music ranging from pop to baroque, this show puts GRINDR square in the middle of the world of Opera!
We meet GRINDR, a mythical siren from remote antiquity who has been awoken from her millennial slumber by technology. Her power, which is derived from human lust, is exhibited as she manipulates her gay devotees in a soaring soprano.
Next we meet the boys: Devon is a romantic, Tom is a cynic, Jack is a twink and Don is a daddy. These four gay men of different “Tribes” meet via the medium of the Grindr app, each seeking a different type of connection GRINDR guides them to intersect to hilarious and calamitous results, culminating in a grand finale wherein all the dirty laundry tumbles out.
Though the opera lives in the world of parody, it touches on some very serious, hot-button issues that exist in the gay community as it transitions into a time of wider acceptance and easy access to opportunities of both romance and lust to be sated.
