Friday, March 15, 2002 La Cenerentola So I finally figured out how to spell the name of the opera I'm teching--La Cenerentola, by Rossini. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not really a huge fan of opera--I prefer musical theater myself--but since I was working on the show I thought it'd be a good idea to learn a little more about it (especially since up in the light booth I'll probably never be able to read the supertitles and figure out what the heck they're all singing about). It contains some plot changes from Cinderella as you remember it: Cindy's evil stepmother has turned into a stepfather, the glass slipper has turned into a bracelet, and Prince Charming likes to disguise himself as his valet (who disguises himself as the Prince and falls in love with Cinderella, who loves the Prince she thinks is the valet, only to discover later that he's really the Prince--confused yet?). At least now I know what's going on.... ^ Top | 5:05 PM | | |
