It isn't over until the fat...

... man snores.

Everything about the Dallas Opera's 50th anniversary production of Verdi's "Nabucco" is fabulous. Fabulous!! Dallas artists Frances Bagley and Tom Orr designed sets worthy of a Wonder of the World like the Babylonian hanging gardens.

I'm happy to report that the man seated behind me announced that he did not have season tickets. That was even before he fell asleep and started snoring loudly during the famous chorus of the Hebrew slaves, "Va pensiero", in Act III. What if the supertitles projected above the stage read, "sleep apnea"? What a wonderful commercial this would make for those Breathe Right nasal strips for athletes and snorers!
