"Marriage of Figaro" - Sacramento Philharmonic and Opera - October 25, 2024

Judging from Facebook, almost everyone I knew was there, but the only person I recognized was Eileen, the Usher (and my neighbor from two blocks away).

It was hard to quite figure out what was going on.  At intermission I hastily read the program to catch up.  Apparently this is the second opera in a series about Figaro (The Barber of Seville is first).  It had a musical-theater feel to it, with even a trendy cause for 1786 (getting rid of droit du seigneur), like many modern musicals have.

A good show!  Thanks to Gabe and Eleanor for the ticket.
