Backstage at the opera



We're just back in the office from the Student Matinee this afternoon, which was predictably a great time. Gotta love the reactions of students (love scenes = hoots and whistles). Luckily Obama's visit to Madison didn't affect traffic patterns and everyone arrived nice and early...we had over 30 schools coming from around Wisconsin!

Hitting rewind to yesterday, Production Manager Ken Ferencek was kind enough to take me and bloggers Maddie Green and Mollie Shambeau on a backstage tour of Overture Hall and the Carmen set. The slideshow above recreates it a little bit, enjoy!
