An operatic adaptation of Brokeback Mountain [. . .] is set to open at Madrid's Teatro Real later this month.

I'm sure you have some questions, such as: How do you bring a story that's set in the American wilderness onto the stage?

If this all sounds strange, just take a moment to remember that an opera about Anna Nicole Smith actually exists.

Wow, my mind just can't say "Cowboys = Opera".  I hope it's good -- not like I live in Spain.
