Screenplay

Beginning: The opera as it was. Who is telling this story? Is there voiceover or do we just see the narrator? Someone for Babs, Cris, etc. We could jump from person to person, but then we wouldn't have good character development and the audience wouldn't care about the characters. The cameos cold be short but meaningful. Who are the stars? I could be Emma. The story could be told from the pov of Jada, Cristine, and Claire. Jada would account for Elizabeth, Al, Naomi,
Claire would account for Faye Grant, Rachel Bilson, Emily Mortimer, and the uncast males.
Cristine would account for everyone else.

Open at front desk. Sunny day late August. Singers come in one by one, at different times thru-out day. We could show different people at the front desk when the singers come in.

It could have a static structure where a lot of what happened was in the lobby. Ticket sales, interactions, audition waiting room, yoga practice, photo shoots, putting up art inside and out, paint staging area.

Interior: Office
