29th March 2012 - La Traviata on Sydney Harbour

One of Duncan's clients, Tourism NSW, invited us as guests to see the performance of La Traviata on Sydney Harbour. I am not massively keen on Opera normally but this was out of this world. The setting at Mrs Macquarie's chair was incredible and we had fabulous seats. The giant crystal chandelier had the main soprano hoisted in the air singing her heart out at one stage. They really made use of the Sydney setting with opera singers arriving by water taxi as part of the story, drag queens appeared at the interval and then formed part of the operatic group on stage for the 2nd half. It really was superb.
