New York Company One World Symphony Creating 'Breaking Bad Ozymandias' Opera

If you have been itching for just one more hit of "Breaking Bad" now that the series has ended, this piece of news...actually, this piece of news is only going to make you scratch your head.

The Wrap reports that the New York City-based company One World Symphony is creating a mini-opera entitled "Breaking Bad - Ozymandias" based on both the show and the Percy Bysshe Shelley poem.

Composer and conductor Sung Jin Hong is creating the mini-opera, which is set for performance on Jan. 26 and 27 of next year. One World Symphony said the opera will deal with the question, "Are we all breaking bad?"

"Cancer became an allegory for evil for the protagonist in 'Breaking Bad,'" Hong said in a blog post. "When Walt White was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, we the audience emotionally supported him and forgave some of his actions, as they may have appeared to be justified. When the cancer went into remission, an intangible cancer was growing, his hubris and lust for power."

One World Symphony has put on some unique performances in the past, such as a flash mob version of "Carmen" at the Whole Foods in the Time Warner Building in 2012.

The Wrap reports that AMC and One World Symphony did not comment on the opera, so it remains to be seen if those behind "Breaking Bad" are supporting the opera.

Ozymandias was a major component of the final season of "Breaking Bad." Bryan Cranston read the poem in its entirety as part of a trailer for the final eight episodes. It was also the title of perhaps the most memorable episode in the show's history in which Hank died, Jesse was kidnapped and Walt lost his entire family. The theme of the fall of empires in the poem was also explored heavily in the final season.
