#the tempest opera

[monotonous-minutia]

I remember the radio hosts (Ira and Margaret, I miss them so much) describing how the opera opens with Ariel swinging on a chandelier and I though “wtf would that look like” and now I’m SEEING it like ahhhhh gonna go cry now

The Tempest

Production: Met 2012

next person who tells me opera is boring is gonna get a lecture from me

folks

love her music, not the outfit though

“Ariel, just...get to the point.”

I can’t with this fairy

Caliban gets right to the point

I want her whole outfit

just casually eavesdropping from the prompter’s box

Miranda: You’re handsome. Prospero: *glares in baritone*

sure that’s not creepy at all

these two, I’m tellin ya

didn’t your mother ever tell you not to eat food you find just lying around

Ariel got a makeover

how exactly did you stumble across a clerk and notary on this deserted island

just playing chess on a trap door nbd

super gay comic duo is a must also the countertenor is amazing

really sweet but are you seriously okay with your daughter marrying this guy and moving in with him less than 24 hours after they met

I wanted to say so much more about this but six hours in a room with 3 year olds has me beat so you may hear more from me later
