Die Fledermaus - The Bat
























On a rainy night what do you do?  I enjoyed a trip to Bratislava and the opera. The program mwas Die Fledermaus, By Johann Strauss II, but in Slovank it is titled Netopier--The Bat.

It was really great entertainment and just plain fun. The set was marvelous and the dancers really caught the audience by surprise. My seat was about 18 rows back and  it made for wonderful viewing.  This opera was humours and the actors really sold their lines. Their expressions and comedic connections were on the mark. It's the first opera I have attended but it sure won't be the last.
