The Sansepolcro performance

     We performed in a lovely location for our Sansepolcro performance. There is a stage located outside in a courtyard of a place that was renovated to be a home for disabled children, but lies empty. It is behind the Santa Marta Church. Even though we were outside, the acoustics were good. We were to begin at 9 pm  but it was a little later. which is normal for Italian productions. The orchestra played wonderfully. There was quite a difference in the musicians from Friday night. The stage was quite noisy and I had a tenancy to make it sound lie I was stomping off stage. It was intentional, but I think it may have been a bit much. There were strong lights to illuminate the stage, so I could not see the audience, but I could make out the conductor. There seemed to be something in the air, we all felt it was very dry. We all ended up drinking a lot of water. We performed and did our best to ham-up the really funny parts. Even though people made mistakes the show was well received and everything seemed to flow together. I cannot believe it; we did it. It was a lot of work for a lot of people for us to put on a four act opera, but we did it. We learned a lot from the experience and it was fun.
