   That’s a good cast for Faust. I haven’t seen one of their productions before, but I think I’ll check this one out. However, I do remember reading that’s a pretty ill-behaved audience.

   You should, the theatre is close to the BART station and the singing will probably be very good. They are ill-behaved, but forewarned is forearmed.

   It would be nice to hear Eugene again. After all the opera disaster jokes I have made at the expense of Turandot, I should probably stay away from that one.

   Perhaps we can arrange an outing to Faust!

   Othalie Graham is one of the greatest Turandot’s in the world.(I have heard MANY) I heard her in Boston and was astounded. It was one of the largest voices I have ever heard with easy high c’s. For once a physically beautiful Turandot with the money notes.

   Hi all..
   I’ll be at the July 19 Turandot performance. If any of the regulars are attending and want to meet, do let me know.
   I bought my ticket based on Jeffrey’s recommendation. I will hope for the best.
   Cheers!
