What’s Opera, Doc?

Description

An operatic parody of Wagner’s work, particularly from the Ring cycle, with Bugs Bunny and Elmer taking on the leading roles.

Brunhilde is arguably one of Bugs Bunny’s most recognizable disguises, appearing on things like postage stamps to a skin option in the online game MultiVersus.
