Opera Omaha's Elixir of Love

This was my first opera and it will be hard to top! Very talented performers, fun set, and easy to follow story. If you don't understand Italian , get tickets in the loge and take advantage of the subtitle screens. A great, unique event!!

The perfect love story for Valentine's Day! Almost a Romeo and Juliet type of story, but without the death and sadness. Tristan and Isolde is what this is based on, but set in a 1980s high schiol. It's in Italian with soaring orchestral music, so a little cognitive dissonance there. But the soprano was spectacular. I would love it just for her performance. Very nice, and the Orpheum Theater is splendid. NOT handicapped accessible, though. So it was difficult for me with my walker.
