TO HEAR THE FAT LADY SING


Spending tonight at the Winspear to see the opera, Cosi Fan Tutte.

This poignant romantic comedy explores the mysteries of the heart with the aid of four attractive young lovers, a crafty maidservant and a jaded man-of-the-world. Featuring an exciting ensemble cast: South African soprano Elza van den Heever in her Dallas Opera debut as the tempestuous Fiordiligi, mezzo Jennifer Holloway (fresh from her company debut as Cherubino in The Marriage of Figaro) in the role of the vulnerable Dorabella, tenor Brian Anderson (Scaramuccio in our production of Ariadne auf Naxos) portraying the idealistic Ferrando and baritone Michael Todd Simpson (Count Almaviva in The Marriage of Figaro) as the love-hungry Guglielmo.

SIGNED: LA LA LAAAAA
