That’s funny! I’d throw cocaine at the stage hands who control those hour-long scene changes.
I was actually in the audience at The Met when that young violinist was murdered. It was a ballet, actually, not an opera.
The Berlin Ballet with the Panovs, yes? My in-laws, ardent Panov fans were there as well.
Wow. What was THAT all about?
We've enjoyed a few operas at the Met in past years, but as we live about 130 miles away, we have been subscribers to the Met Live in HD series for about two years now. We brought friends to an opera a couple years ago, and they were hooked, so they joined us as subscribers.
There are usually big crowds in two theaters for every Met Live in HD opera simulcast at our local Manchester, CT Cinemark!
