Hell
I feel like some days I want to post 15 times on here, and others not at all. Ah. The life of a blogger.
I saw the greatest show this weekend. Quite the opposite from the Jacques Brel disaster. It's called Hell, and is an operatic retelling of Dante's Inferno. Sounds terribly boring, right? But it's not. It's brilliant. It's all about the importance of live art. Live theatre, live poetry, live opera. And how it's still important, and still relevant in our society. And needs to be there. And how the powers that be (it's somewhat political) are crushing live arts, and feeding us pre-recorded images en masse. If you're in New York, and at all excited by opera, or theatre, or if you are a creative soul at all, you will love it. Go see it! Tickets are only $20. It only plays through this Sunday, though, so you've got to hurry!
