Witnessing @DaniHoward6's The Yellow Wallpaper - a mini opera with choreography presented by @TheOperaStory at the Lilian Baylis Studio (with two more shows tomorrow) - you realise how much her airborne music was just born to dance. @Sadlers_Wells, let her loose on the mainstage!

Dani Howard's first opera The Yellow Wallpaper premiered at the weekend in Copenhagen. It did not disappoint, even if you hold its source text dear.
