All Fached Up: The Gender-Bending Voice Competition
Notsuoh314 Main StHouston, TX77002 Map
It's that time of year! We're going to throw some singers into the ring and let em battle it out, but there's a twist! Not only do they have to show what they've got with their own voice, they'll have to sell an aria from an entirely different Fach! Who's going home with the crown? Come get fached up and find out!
Here's how it's going to Faching work:
Preliminary: All Fached Up
Each performer will perform one aria. What's the catch? It can't be an aria from their voice type. A bass singing the Doll aria? Maybe. Does that countess have a beard? Guess you'll have to find out! The top three will battle it out in the final round.
Finals: Down to Faching Business
The crowd selects the top three fached up singers and we'll call them back on stage. This time they are going to sing their best showstopper in their own Fach to battle it out for Fached Up Champion!
