Here they are, the pictures of the famous opera "Die Flabberpuss" staged at John's Halloween party. Photos courtesy of renowned stage photographer Marlo Meekins.
Here (above) the young shepherd boy discovers a beautiful forest nymph (Marlo) asleep on the branch of a tree. The lad feels something peculiar stirring within him but he's on a quest and must not dilly-dally.
Here (above) the idealistic young shepherd boy encounters Katilda (Katie), the beautiful siren of the forest. She entices him to sup with her in her cave beneath a gnarly, mist-enshrouded tree. Once again the lad feels peculiar longings but he remembers his quest and bolts into the woods. Running through the dense forest the boy hears screams behind him. Curious, he climbs a tree and sees Fabberpuss (above), the towering, mushroom-covered, evil, girl-eating troll menacing three quivering fairies (Kali, Katie, and Marlo). Well, there's no time to tell the whole story. Maybe I'll continue this later. Thanks Marlo for letting me swipe these photos from your blog!

I love the narration! You're such a goof ball Eddie.
Genius! Now you should all do it naked. It would be even funnier.
Where is the "fat lady" I'm always hearing about? None on display here...
Halloween is not a cultural thing in America, either, except in the vicinity of Uncle Eddie!
Great costumes with great facial expressions.
It seems to me that John K sure knows how to throw a party!
HAW HAW!!!! MY FAVORITE PART IS WHEN THE STORY STOPS SUDDENLY!
I WANT MORE!!!!!
Katie just read this outloud today to all of us at nickelodeon! we cracked up ! you are quite a poet!
Not only is Marlo a brilliant caricaturist, but apparently she's an elvish impersonator too! As for Eddie - he sort of looks like the offspring of Elton John and The Nutty Professor.
It was more of a ballet than an opera. I can attest that the audience was enthralled.
Genius! Bravo!
MARLO! You are working at Nick now? You owe me an email expanation, girlie! YAY for you!!! : )
At least, if they know what's good for 'em you're there...you missy are a total package o'talent. Gawrsh! {{Eddie! make sure she sees this! And writes me! Guide her slender hand across the keyboard if necessary!}}
