Opera prices through the roof, NYers paying way to much to live in the suburbs even, NY programs simply invite importing low life’s and they think it opera can survive?

Handwriting on the wall. Opera depends on donations from well-to-do donors who are into culture. And it’s pretty clear what is going to be happening to THEIR disposable income once DeBlasio becomes Mayor.

Sad news. I’ve always enjoyed the NYC Opera productions I have seen on PBS. I don’t go to the opera anymore here in Houston. My wife and I were season ticket holders for several years. The expense was one reason we stopped going. The main reason was the “Eurotrash” style of production that seems to afflict every opera house these days.

But I assume the Metropolitan Opera is still in business?

Can’t the FED print some money to support them as they do for most other NY Residents?

In a cultural vacuum, nobody can hear you sing.

That would be “spear and magic helmet”, IIRC. AFAICR, it was Siegfried (whom Fudd was parodying) that carried a sword, and used it to shatter Wotan’s spear.
