MEDFORD, Mass. -- When Tufts music student Abigail Al-Doory sought inspiration for her opera, she looked not to Wagner's "Ring" cycle but to the Olympic rings, where themes like power, envy and greed are plentiful.

In "Tonya and Nancy: The Opera," Al-Doory provides 18 movements on the scandal that turned the once-dainty sport of figure skating into a soap opera of whacking, wailing and time spent in jail.

Full story.





Sounds riveting...I've got your 18 movements right here...

Tonya and Nancy is so dated. If we are to rehash old scandals, a Bill and Monica play complete with on-stage fellatio would be better.
