My daughter and I were chorus members in the local opera production of Tosca. Here is a shot of us in our costumes an makeup.



Even if you are not an opera buff, this one can keep your attention with comedy, fickle beautiful women, sadistic secret police, ****, betrayal, torture, murder, vengence, love, and, oh yea, some beautiful opera music.

My 10 year old son even enjoyed it.

That's a neat photo, Tom. It is really great that you and your daughter are able to share your music that way! I'll bet you had a grand time with Tosca.

Regards,

Ed

I like the costuming, and your daughter is a lovely young lady. How fortunate you are to be able to share a love of music with her. I hope she stays serious about her music, it is such a gift. If you can get your 10 year old boy to enjoy spending time in an opera house you are a miracle worker.

Very nice photo. I bet you had fun, and to be able to do it with your daughter yet. Actually I was looking for Groucho but give my regards to Angelotti.

I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.

Nice pic Tom. You seem to have described a normal day in the life of our Village.

You would think that the Marx Bros. were backstage with some of the antics, but alas it was Angelotti not Groucho that appeared on the stage. True professionals all the way.
