Times Have Changed

After having sunk into the depths of almost writing Giovanni supertitle translations right up until the dress rehearsal, I’m reforming. Finished the first draft of Cenerentola today. Actually have a week to edit and tweak.

Tonight brought a magnificent Don Quixote by the Bolshoi Ballet and Orchestra. A landmark event at Wolf Trap. Back in the day, we were a stop for many touring ballet companies, opera companies, and symphony orchestras. Times have changed, and almost no one can afford to tour any more. But for two nights this week, it’s like old times.
