I didn't get to the opera until Tuesday night after all, and Wednesday morning I didn't have a chance to write the promised mini-review, and now the show's over. Sorry if you missed it. I fell asleep during parts, but that was only because of the two strong drinks I had previously that afternoon and the fact that Philip Glass is like a lullabye to me... The sets were cool, as was the fact that the Beast "escaped" midway through and ate the director of the National Theatre.
