And While London Burns - an operatic guided tour of London

"Bathed in fire, flood, love and turmoil And While London Burns is a compelling collision of thriller, opera and guided walk."

From the download page " Listening to the piece without doing the walk will be like watching TV with the images turned off and is not recommended." Meh.

I've got some some atmospheric clarinet and a dude in leathers holding a gasoline can, splashing in a puddle. I want more.

Dude, what if we turn it on while watching The Wizard of Oz? That'd, like, blow my mind.

This is a fantastic idea! I hope someone does one for DC.

I'm going to try it next week. Looks very cool.

This looks fantastic. Someone who actually lives in London should do this and report on it.

And they should make one for Toronto.

I'm new to England, and have been looking for something alternative to do during a trip to London. This looks like just the thing. Maybe we can get a group of MeFites together for it. (note to self: post to MeTa)

I would like to try this BUT you have to do it on a weekday and it last 70 mins. So even if you work near the city its going to take more than a lunch hour !
