Salome, A Cute and Cuddly Opera

There are some really enchanting, exihilerating, and incredibly romantic operas out there, but few are as warm and fuzzy as the german opera Salome.
Salome is just an easy going, stripper princess whose romantic advances are rejected by John the Baptist. In retaliation, she orders John the Baptist's head to be brought to her on a platter...and if that isn't enough she begins making out with his head on stage...while bathing in his blood. Nothing quite says Je t'aime like uuuuh that.
Oh yeah, the executioner is randomly butt naked...

But in all seriousness, this show is really creepy. Like...stomach upsetting creepy.
