Because I have to see this so badly it almost hurts.
I just love things like this: cross-genre, cross-language, practically cross-dimensional. Last weekend I went to see Tosca at the Royal Albert Hall (which was splendid) - now, I find this absolute treasure concept of theatre spectacular, courtesy of a copy of the Evening Standard I picked up by chance on my daily commuter train.
See you all at the Garrick come April.
Great production wasn’t it? The final scenes were far improved to the last production I saw.
Yes, I thought it was excellent. Always good to hear an opera in English, too – my Italian isn’t what it could be.
Well, you’re having a whole lot of serious fun aren’t you?
Could you spare a few hours and explain how this is done to a far too serious TEFL teacher stuck out in the wilds of rural Ireland…
‘Cos I really do want to enjoy myself but I’m not sure how…
Serious fun! Hah!
Erm…you could come over and visit me? Most of my fun seems to happen by accident…
