BK, you had better check your first paragraph. You typed September where you meant October.

CARMEN

Performing in the chorus of CARMEN while at Western Washington University, was my very first actual theatrical experience.

I cleaned off my computer table yesterday. I found a stamped envelope I thought I had mailed early last week. I wondered why that check had not cleared. Oy!

DR vixmom, what wonderful news about your new car! I had never given any thought about the fate of rented automobiles, and I wonder if Budget, Enterprise, and other companies also sell their cars. When I was in Ohio in 2017, I really liked my rental cars.

I'm waiting to hear from Joshie. His brother Jeremy's playing sax in the tour of Miss Saigon, so Joshie went to Providence RI this weekend to see a performance with his family. He had a question for me about Britten's wonderful opera A Midsummer Night's Dream, so I expect to hear from him at some point today.

Britten leads to the TOD:
Carmen
The Marriage of Figaro
Don Giovanni
Manon
Mignon
The Tales of Hoffmann
Rigoletto
Falstaff
Turandot
Tosca
La Bohéme
The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny
Amahl and the Night Visitors
The Rake's Progress
The Bartered Bride
Peter Grimes
Albert Herring
Paul Bunyan
A Midsummer Night's Dream
Porgy and Bess
Whatever I decide to listen to at that moment.

I will add that I generally prefer to listen than watch an opera performance these days, especially since I find this current trend of dressing everything in contemporary dress quite ugly. I also find a lot of "theatre" directors - don't get me started on the Euro-trash directors! - destroy a piece bu imposing their often misguided ideas onto a staging.

And here's a plug. In 1964, Maria Callas gave one of her last performances at Covent Garden in Tosca. The BBC should have videotaped the entire performance, but they only recorded Act Two. It's quite wonderful, and I think it may be the only footage of Callas in performance as opposed to recital. She's amazing.

The work continues today. With luck they really will finish everything except for installing the new carpet.

Insurance does not include cleaning. When we left for our trip I left a clean home, seems it should be returned to that condition, but nope we have to do it ourselves. They did vacuum in the guest rooms but not the hallways they messed up. Keith did that.
