Talk Show: The Musical

by Wills Morgan
 
It had trash talk performed by opera singers . It had a musical score which boasted some some actual tunes. It had a whole first act and a bit of a second act. And it had a big black man in a clean white nappy. This is the story of how JERRY SPRINGER: THE OPERA became the hit show a decade ago last week at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
