Flying Dutchman didn’t fly

Went to go see the last of the operas in this season, Wagner’s Flying Dutchman. While the screen with the very changing vistas was an interesting setting, the truth is that it wasn’t all that good. The Dutchman himself couldn’t project enough and the Senta projected too much to the point of screaming. It made the cost of next seasons’ tickets at $396 x 2 seem a bit much to swallow. If you factor in $60 for babysitting – we’d be paying $260+ to see an opera.

Netflix.
