I just came back from watching opera at the Art Centre (Romeo Et Juliette). I got free tickets from Eng, so that’s good. But it is soo damn boring, I reckon. The action is slow, cause they had to sing it. The prop is good though, at the opening scene don’t have any expectation, it looks as if they are reflected through glass, because the stage is actually with perspective and the first Act is ball room dacing sort of thing and it is behind a thin veil which makes it looks kinda like a mirror.
After that I was having problem keeping my self awake. Eng fallen asleep during the second act. I manage to keep myself awake right to the end, barely. The second last act seems a bit dragging, Juliet is about to drink the potion, and she just run around and not doing it. The other thing is the subtitle which makes my eyes sore cause I had to glanced at it at the top of the stage, way at the top.
