A long time ago, in a far away place, Schwump began the creation of his mysterious Frog Opera. But due to many moves, and many lost items, that Frog Opera became missing in action, never to see the light of day.
But, now, in 2019, thanks to the encouragement of Andreas Mathews, the opera was re-created, and is even better than the original.
With many new songs and sounds, this 39 minute spectacular will revive your imagination as you follow Tad, our hero, who once a human prince, then was turned into a frog by an evil witch. He travels through land and sea, earth and space, trying to find a way out of his dilemma. He meets a toadess, who tries to convince him to marry her, and stay a frog. But Tad, being a frog, not a toad, wants nothing to do with her. He abandons her, searching for a cure to his frog -ness. He has many adventures, including a meeting with Yodel, the wise Frog of Yore , entering the Swirling Well of Darkness, encountering the Alien Frog from Outer Space, battling the Terribly Twisted Toad Monster, and an evening with the enchanting Tree Frog Creatures. This work, inspired by The Residents, may be the crowning finish to a wonderful journey of music and my imagination over many years. I truly hope you enjoy it.
