From the Director's Desk:
Dido and Aeneas Update: Well, we've hit a few bumps...but despite that we are still moving forward. Maybe, because I'm stubborn. Who knows. We blocked all the scenes with the witches this week and they look amazing. I hope y'all are as excited as I am to see this very unique production of Purcell's "only true" opera. Please see the column on the right side of the screen for ticket information.

Dido and Aeneas Update
From the director's desk: We had our first rehearsal last Tuesday. (Well, okay, we've been rehearsing music for almost two months...) What I meant was, we had our first BLOCKING rehearsal last Tuesday. I thought it went well. For most of the cast, this was the first time that they had seen each other. Perhaps new friendships were made? I don't know. I was too busy working on staging the suicide to notice. Yes. Yes, Dido will kill herself at the end. She's not just going to die of a broken heart. That's lame. We have a sword that she will stab herself with. (Well, hopefully not really, it'll just be pretend. I hope.)
