Best yet

This Marriage of Figaro, Saturday version, could not have had a better Figaro and Susanna. What intelligent singers and actors, and what fine voices! This vindicates, once again, our reasoning for attending on Saturday, rather than Friday, night. If people are sharp, they will have contracted Morgan Smith and Alicia Berneche for future roles. Jane Thorngren was an excellent countess. The opera was not spending big bucks on sets or costumes this year. With the distinguished lighting designs of David Nancarrow, a bare stage would work just fine.
