A ghost plays a piece in Opera Bastille and is dancer at the Opera Garnier. There is an almost mystical link between these two spaces. A musician tests new sounds in Bastille’s basement as the choir begins to take their places. They rehearse together a new opera, Sarah Winchester, on her madness, her home, and her ghosts.
