There are some who say that Western Culture is dying – slowly being trampled by influx of other, stronger cultures and the general apathy of the an uneducated public blind to the artistic traditions that put us where we are today. These people point to the unwelcome resurrection of Rocky, Rambo, The Bionic Woman, and American Gladiators (can The Solid Gold Dancers be far behind?) as portents of the coming fall.
Others look more closely, and find the flowers of legitimate art growing the cracks in the pavement of mediocrity, in the form of an opera based on the 1986 movie “The Fly”.
