In the case of "The Stoned Guest," the musical score is filled with moments of musical kitch or recognizable musical tunes and motives from other famous classical works that have been borrowed and convoluted for comedic effect.
The circus theme extends into costuming and makeup, especially in "The Stoned Guest," with most of the characters wearing bright, somewhat garish clothing and making up their faces using a bit of a "clown" effect.

The shows have been met with such enthusiasm that Samuelson and her troupe took The Stoned Guest on the road to perform at high schools and junior colleges.
Paul Betz, a music theatre major who acted in The Stoned Guest, said the opera deals in a genre different from most plays – it takes farce to the extreme – and is very challenging.
Samuelson says people think opera is necessarily stuffy, but if they’re exposed to it in a fun, entertaining way, it will open their eyes – and their ears – to discover that it’s really wonderful music.

"The Stoned Guest" was written by P.D.Q. Bach (not the actual Bach, but a comic pen-name who wrote spoofs of classical music in the 1970s).
This opera is a bizarre mixture of Mozart and "Monty Python's Flying Circus" -- it wonderfully parodies "Don Giovanni." Anyone familiar with opera would appreciate the tongue-in-cheek parody of the genre.
The two female roles in "The Stoned Guest," played by Margaret Nilsson and Melissa Korzec-Hillman had some parts whose difficulty was masked by their comic nature.
