Hello! How can I help you today?<|im_end|>

I'm interested in learning about different types of theater. What's the main difference between a musical and a play?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
A musical typically includes singing and dancing, while a play is a performance with only dialogue and acting.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
That makes sense. What about opera? How is it different from a musical?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Opera is a type of performance that focuses primarily on singing, with the story told mainly through music and song, often in a formal or classical style.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I see. So, it's more focused on the music than the acting or dialogue.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Exactly, opera emphasizes the musical aspect, often with complex vocal performances and orchestral accompaniment.<|im_end|>
