Take some interesting people, add in a little adventure, some love, or even some hate; put it all in an interesting place, and maybe an interesting time, and you’ve got a story fit for an opera. Opera is drama. Take the story you’ve chosen and put the words into dialogue for actors to say. Tell the story in a creative way and add in some heroes and heroines or queens and kings. Maybe a monster—or four. Make sure there is a clear conflict in the story that the characters must overcome. Put your actors in costumes and makeup, and put them on a stage with some great scenery in order to illuminate the characters. Opera is music. Write some fantastic music for your play. Instead of having the actors speak, have them sing…everything! When they get really happy or mad, have them sing high and loud! When they are trying to express an important emotion, let them sing something longer to show off a little.

  • Colorado Magazine Xli/2 1964
    BY CALVIN W. GOWER Friends of James Gordon said he was a quiet, well-mannered man, but on a July night in 1860 he went berserk in the frontier mining town of Denver, which at that time was part of Kansas Territory. Like thousands of others, Gordon, who was twenty­ three years old, had been lured from his Iowa home by tales of boundless gold deposits in the Cherry Creek area at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. On that fateful summer night in 1860 he committed a horrible murder and set in motion a series of events which included a manhunt covering hundreds of miles, a terrifying riot in Leavenworth, Kansas, and a "vigilante trial" in Denver. Both the riot and the vigilante trial occurred because the regular officials of the Territory of Kansas seemingly were unable to provide adequate rules for the gold region. As in the past in American history, a formally constituted government encountered difficulties in its attempts to bring law and order to a frontier settlement. Gordon's act of murder came after three days of drinking and carousing. On Wednesday, July 18, he had begun his spree by drinking heavily and then had gone to a brothel where he became angry and shot the bartender twice, wounding him severely. The following day, drunk again, he fired his pistol wildly several times. Friday, July 20, the day he committed his murder, Gordon had been imbibing freely again. That evening he entered a saloon and soon accosted a man named John Gantz, a German who had come to the gold region from Leavenworth, Kansas.
