THE SHOW MUST GO ON, AS MURDER, MUSIC AND MAYHEM RUN RIOT IN THE NIGHT . . .
The Opera House, Ankh-Morpork . . . a huge, rambling building, where innocent young sopranos are lured to their destiny by a strangely-familiar eveil mastermind in a hideously-deformed evening dress . . .
At least, he hopes so. But Granny Weatherwax, Discworld's most famous witch, is in the audience. And she doesn't hold with that sort of thing.
So there's going to be trouble (but nevertheless a good evenin's entertainment with murders you can really hum . . .)
Content warning plot/characer spoilers maybe?
I wanted to like this more than I did: witches, a Phantom-esque plotline, theater puns... but the anti-fatness really rubbed me the wrong way. I understand this is a huge factor in the motivation of Agnes/Perdita as a character. It just took the wind out of the story-sails and made the whole thing less enjoyable :(
Oopperan kummitus rupeaa murhaamaan urakalla, mutta show'n pitää jatkua. Maalaisnoidat päätyvät kaupunkiin ja rupeavat selvittämään oopperan salaisuuksia. Naamio jos toinenkin riisutaan ennen kuin kummitus vihdoin kohtaa dramaattisen loppunsa. Keskimääräistä viihdyttävämpää kohellusta ja nokkelaa oopperamaailman kliseiden perkamista.
