A Night at the Opera

Hi all! Isn't having a blog great? I got invited to attend the Minnesota Opera for a blogger preview of the new show, Lucia di Lammermoor.  I took my lovely friend and co-worker Danielle and it was so fun! I have never been to an opera before so I had no idea what to expect. I was really pleasantly surprised and floored by how amazing the female lead's voice was.

You can see a video clip here if you don't believe me!

It was such a cool experience. We were invited to a dress rehearsal so it felt really special to be there when the theater was almost empty. Total behind the scenes peek!  I have quite a few pictures from around St. Paul by the Ordway.
