I wouldn't go and see it but as a concept there's nothing wrong with it. It's designed to show how people get their heads tunred by the idea of easy stardom without having a specific skill or talent and then get ripped apart by the media and general public when they're potentially not mentally equipped to deal with it. Hers was one of the more extreme examples so it makes sense. An interesting morality tale for our time I would say and entirely what cutting edge opera and theatre should be about. Thanks Medro - an interesting article for once.
'Carmen', 'Tosca', 'Lucia di Lammermoor', 'Tristan und Isolde' are definite musts for those who like tragic operas!The finale of 'Rigoletto' is heart-breaking. As is the 'Der Rosenkavalier' trio (at least i think so!). 'La Boheme' and 'Otello' are tragic and 'La Traviata' is, too! Ah, the list goes on and on... how many do you need?
I remember an ex tried to get me to watch Mama Mia. After the 1st song I burst out laughing and told her I couldn't watch 2 hours of that ****e.
My inlaws bought me a ticket to go see "Les Miz" a few years back at Edinburgh Playhouse... a politely told them that I would not be going!
They obviously don't like you that much. On a totally unrelated note Pudsy, a bird I know offered me a ticket to TomorrowLand next week. Won them in a competition but I've got a job interview the same day it starts
The lineup looks decent enough for a free ticket, though **** knows how much hotel, flights, spending £ would have cost me.
