Elaine transferred me to Leah on Thursday evening in downtown Chicago. Brian is staying with Leah and it was nice to see him again. Be sure you learn how to secure the sink and tub if you go visit!!
Other than some work related e-mail and phone calls, I read all day. What a treat!
That evening, Leah and I went to see Regina. The reviewer was kinder to the production that I was. There were some nice parts but the whole opera did not hang together well and was too static, especially the first act. The second act was a big improvement with the entrance of the chorus. Although, I think instituting some scene changes and direction changes would increase audience enjoyment and interest, it isn't an opera that I would care about seeing again.
