Yesterday...

"Plaaaaaaaaciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidooooooooooooo! Placido! I looooooooooovvve yooooooooouuuuuuuuuuu! Plaaaaaaaaaaacido!"

A couple friends and I went to see the free screening of Pagliacci in Covent Garden yesterday, outside the Royal Opera House. As you can guess, Placido Domingo plays the lead with Angela Gheorghiu as his wife. It's a very short opera - only 1hour 45 minutes in length...and that includes the interval. The above was what a woman started shouting at the end of the performance when the cast came out to greet the crowd outside. Hehe.
