Opera in the Shower is a playful meditation on the use of water in our daily lives.

A shower appeared in Zuccotti Park. From within, an opera singer, dressed in an old-fashioned bathing costume and shower cap, sang nature-themed arias from her repertoire interspersed with operatic renditions of water-themed songs a la “Row, Row, Row Your Boat.”

Opera in the Shower was inspired by Helen Banner’s concept of a “medieval water opera”. It is part of the Arts Brookfield Series at Zuccotti Park.
