A Night at the Opera

On Saturday September 23td Trudy and I went to the Opera at Lake Las Vegas.

With no disrespect intended, Trudy and I had a better time than Groucho, Harpo, Chico and Kitty Carlilse.

The season opener was a free presentation of famous arias by the principals of the company. The topper was sitting right in front of the ice cream parlor with the world's best Galatto.

The week before we had gone to the Ballet and I didn't know the cameras were allowed. Won't make that mistake again.

A few days later we took Joni Kahn to the Las Vegas Art Museum for an amazing show of Roy Lichtenstein Prints 1956-97. I saw works that I had never seen before, We were enthralled.

This is all to let you know that there is a cultural side to "Lost Wages" that takes a while to find. Trudy has spent hours on the phone, on the net and reading the paper to find what, when and where.

The theatre here (in the Off The Strip World) is excellent. It is well supported and inexpensive.

The Laramie Project was as well done as any play we have ever seen. Bye the way, we saw "O"

(absolutely no cameras allowed) and it was good but we still like Mystere best.
