The chick with a dick, for those who were wondering, was just one of the more piss-inducingly funny lyrics near the beginning of the opera.
I loved this performance. It wasn't by any means the greatest thing I've ever seen, and the second half, I thought, wasn't as good as the first. The religious characterisations were outragiously comical, but I didn't like the music so much. Meh.
One presenter of my local radio station made me laugh. He had to thank the Christians profusely for complaining so strongly about Jerry Springer - the Opera - because it had introduced him to the work, and he loved it. He also made a nice comparison to the didiots that complained before seeing it.
A man walks into a pub: “:Hello, I want to complain about your steak and chips!”
The barman: “Erm, okay. When did you have this meal?”
“Oh, I've never eaten here, but I wish to complain about the food.”
I must get some music from that opera.
