WIG FITTING: All in a day’s work at the @operadeparis. Every opera house is a veritable factory of artisans. Everything from the sets to costumes to wigs to props are all built in-house. Each show involves HUNDREDS of costumes and wigs. This is me getting a mold of my head made in case they need to make a wig which will be created by sewing every single hair (of THOUSANDS) in place BY HAND. I am always in awe of the amount and work, craftsmenship, and care (yes Tiny Tim @tchalamet , people care THIS much.) 🖤

CAPITAL “O” OPERA SINGIN: I’m back in Detroit, a city I’ve grown to love and care about over the years to sing in “HIGHWAYS & VALLEYS” with Detroit Opera. As some (many / all?) of you know, I dabble in many corners of the vocal and performance spectrum singing contemporary, self-devised, or genre-blending things. Rarely do I fully employ a more traditional/standard/Western European–born operatic vocal prodution aside from the underlying bel canto technique, partly because that part of my voice wasn’tfavored and developed while I was in conservatory. And because it symbolized allowing the weight, pain and limitations of the western classical music tradition, or at scale, the train of an oppressive institutional exclusionary culture to flow welcomed and be-labored through my own body. My journey with my voice technically and spiritually has caused me to continually re-find how I relate to my body, and how I (not an institution) decide to employ my voice and its colors. Being here in Detroit to sing Kurt Weill’s ‘Down In the Valley’ and William Grant Still’s ‘Highway 1’ — stories and composers who experienced many versions of exile — with an all black principal cast and a production centering Black love stories led fiercely by @kanezaschaal has allowed me to feel that my big-boy opera voice is for a reason. #happyopening @detroitopera 🖤
