Dear Princess, I’ve been following your site for some time and I admire your lifestyle very much. Would you mind directing me to some webpage with more details about this production of the opera? I’m interested in opera, mainly Baroque, and especially in the countertenor voice. Thank you very much!

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is so raunchy! XD I never understood it until I joined theatre as my major and my class had us go through it. Oberon wants Titania’s little human boy as a bedmate, Titania tells him no, so he makes her commit bestiality so she may feel how it is to desire something one should not have and thus give up the boy more easily. Then when they argue about how Oberon was always playing around with Hippolyta– his “bouncing” Amazoness–and then Oberon throws back at her that she had a man commit adultery and sleep around as well. I find it very amusing they used children as the fairy court when, as I was awakened to what was going on, these fairies are rather perverse!

I’ve never been to the Opera and I love it since I was a child. I used to watch Opera on the TV, which makes me a little sad now that I think about it.. ^^;
I’m glad you enjoyed it!!

It sounds like you had a wonderful evening. I have never been to the opera, but your post really makes me want to go to one. I am still trying to be able to go to ballets.
