In other news, what more do you want in a review operafan? It sounds more like Chessen is trying not to give away too much about the opera so YOU can go see it and decide for yourself. Were you hoping that the author would give you details you could skip going to the show and still have witty one liners to drop over machiattos with your pretentious opera buddies?
Wow, I didn't realize how good it felt to talk trash behind anonymous screen names. No wonder you chose to be so snarky, Emily. Though, you could have been more creative with a screen name. I mean, sure there are 100k other Emilys in Seattle but still.
Opera doesn't do 'hot dude' very well.
Unless you count Mario Lanza.
Goodnight.
the review sounds like you read a wiki article, glanced over someone else's review, then went to the show and skipped out at the first intermission.
