Description A free outdoor art piece, He Did What? is a humorous,10-minute animated opera projected onto a wall and heard through headsets. Its decidedly wacky plot of two octogenarians concocting a “hit” on a cheating husband is conveyed through a graffiti-like visual style, operatic vocals, and a cacophonous orchestral soundtrack. Created by the Belfast-based Dumbworld and nominated for a Total Theatre Award by the Irish National Opera, He Did What? demonstrates its two founders’ mission to make work that exists at the intersection of music, image, and word.
