Taking It Up the Octave: A BBC Radio 4 Sitcom

Staging opera can be an exhausting and chaotic business – as this five-part comedy drama written by Fintan Coyle and Tom Miles sets out to show! Opera Sunderland has a tradition of performing a new work every season - 'its umbilical cord to civilisation'. However, when managing director Dwight Gaggenheim opts for an unconventional piece, the tempers and egos of a plethora of opera types come bubbling to the surface. This series follows the cast of a staging opera as they put on the new season’s production Carmen. The series features music by Tom Miles and Georges Bizet, and stars Godfrey James.
