No really, I’m actually going to a real live opera this Friday, for Opera Colorado’s new production of something I’d never heard of called “Florencia En El Amazonas.” A friend asked me about it and I checked out OC’s website and was intrigued. Also, one of the stars is Beth Clayton, who I enjoy getting to see when I can because 1) she’s really good; and 2) I was at college with her. We sang in the alto section of the choral union and also I got to see her in student productions. Pretty cool.
Here’s a “trailer:”
And a review is here. I’ll let you know how it goes!
A colleague of Beth Clayton? – oh, wow, can I have your autograph?
Have a fabulous time – looking forward to the review.

well, I dunno about colleague! It's *possible* she knew my name, maybe, since we sang in the same section for 3-4 years. I definitely remember being star-struck even then!
