Bring The Come Bargain Trilogy To Life In 2025

Thank you.

Thanks to your contributions, we've raised £1,720. That means we can start putting down deposits on venues, have money for other upfront costs, and both cash-in-hand and audience support to show other potential backers we're on our way.

Your contributions have really touched us; large and small, from those who saw the previous shows to people from across oceans who'll never get to see the Trilogy live. Putting on something like this is sometimes lonely work, and you joining us reminds us that people do want to enter our uncanny worlds.

With your support behind us, we've been having some exciting developments. Fixing venues, developing Come Murder An Uncanny Thing, and some wonderful design decisions we hope you'll love. You'll be the first to know about all key developments, and get special behind-the-scenes insights, messages, and more from our team.

So, what happens now?

• In the next few days, we'll be in touch with details about fulfilling your rewards. That will include emailing you from [email protected], so if you don't hear from us, do check your spam filter.
• Next week, we'll start some of the administrative processes of bringing the Come Bargain Trilogy to life - moving towards finalised venues and dates, preparing our recruitment call, and getting ahead on creating marketing assets.
• The meeting I'm most looking forward to is with a designer I'm excited to (dates permitting) to be working with, where we're going to sit down and work out how exactly to make Come Murder An Uncanny Thing sing visually.

But for now, it's time for a little rest (and for the team to open several different shows in the next few days). Thank you for getting us to this wonderful point, and more soon.

Very best,

Leo Doulton

Artistic Director, Virtually Opera

P.S. We've noticed some people calling this the 'Uncanny Things Trilogy'. If you think that's a better name, do let us know!
