OPERA!

[thoreau]

My opera buddy Shaun and I just purchased our tickets for the 2010 Fall Season of the San Francisco Opera. We get cheap seats in the back of the balcony - but with the Operatron screens (movie screens on either side of the balcony fed by a stage camera) - its like sitting in $300 seats - and not breaking the billfold. I'm totally squee'd out by the lineup: Verdi's AIDA, Massenet's WERTHER, Mozart's THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO, Puccini's MADAMA BUTTERFLY, Alfano's CYRANO DE BERGERAC, and JANACEK's THE MAKROPULOS CASE.
