Today is the opening of MADAM. I really don’t have the right words to describe how important this day is to me. I believe this opportunity is the greatest I’ll ever have in my artistic career. After a long break away from the stage, Polly has given me a confidence and outlook on life that I will keep with me forever.

Thank you @asongfrombea @swanprincessperformance @fempath & @the_original_fefe for trusting me with this role. I simply could not have don’t this with any other team but you.

And thank you @milan_furtado for these incredible photos. Your artistry never stops astounding me.

To everyone who has bought a ticket (sold out omg what?!?!) and who has supported this show in any way: I send you all my deepest love and gratitude 🖤

International renown.

The cutting-edge of technology.

Global representatives gathered together to share advancements in their society.

This was the World’s Fair, the phenomenon to which we can attribute the unveiling of La Tour Eiffel, Olmstead’s landscaping technology, San Francisco’s Japanese Tea Garden, Lima’s Peruvian Pavillion, and even the first whispers of the telephone.

Killer Queen Opera Presents: The 2026 Operatic World’s Fair - an evening of intercultural contributions to the cutting edge of opera and the arts.

Featuring works old and new by composers from around the globe, the Killer Queen Operatic World’s Fair travels deep into the core of human consciousness, extracting common themes while celebrating the depth of artistic diversity reflected in New York City.

By purchasing a ticket, you are becoming a patron of the arts! All funds raised from this evening will go toward our 26-27 artists, productions, and finalizing our status as a 501 (c)(3) NON-PROFIT organization! All event and ticket information can be found on our website. Website & ticket link in bio!

We can’t want to kick-off our upcoming season with you!

It has been said that opera is the ultimate art form…🎶✨

In this week’s episode of Always Looking Up I sat down with @karinacamile. Karina is a director, performer, teaching artist and co-founder of @killerqueenopera and @themusiccolabnyc.

We discuss accessibility in and at the opera, what the world would look like if disabled people designed it, opera roles that would be enhanced if they were portrayed by disabled performers and much, much more.
