the British have always been an uptight and bitter group of people. In particular the aristocracy of the bunch.

Italian people, on the other hand. Italians have typically been an expressive and passionate group of people.

It is for these reasons I'm most interested in Italian theater and Italian opera. 

Not Shakespeare or anyone like him.

At the moment, I'm calling this an "Italian" Opera, because this is where I'm looking for my inspiration.

This is going to be an original theatrical presentation on a theatrical stage. One which pushes boundaries between theatre and movies.
