How do you like my idea for an opera?

I haven't got a plot or characters yet, and I can't write music to save my life.

All I know is it should have a chorus of singing pigeons - that is to say people dressed as pigeons.

Any ideas welcome.

    A spiffing idea, dear Jean! How about a cast of singing pigeons wearing roller skates who hang about under the eaves of a Parisian opera house which is secretly inhabited by a horribly disfigured lunatic who is obsessed with a young ingenue singer playing the role of Evita Peron?

    One shall employ the services of ones expert barristers if that Lloyd Webber chappie threatens to litigate.

    Whatever you do, make sure you have an odd number of pigeons. Prime number is even better, like 5, 7 or 13.

    I would definitely see this opera. Not sure if I could afford the tickets across the Atlantic, though. So be sure to make it so good that it's an international hit so I can see the touring company when it comes my way.

    Oh yes, and the Tony Awards are black and gold, so be sure to wear a color-coordinated suit so you look good standing next to it during the acceptance speech.

    A Bobcat chorus line, interrupting the pigeon one sounds entertaining....particularly if some of the pigeons get flung out into the audience. I believe the audience yearns for involvement. In fact, I know they do.

    Fling those pigeons, Duck.

    edit*

    I suppose any smallish species of wild cat would do.....but bobcats are a very good choice.

    Send it to Pixar Productions.

    Something 'The Producers' would come up with.

    Great idea, please ensure that the pigeons wear black bow ties. That will keep it classy.
