They Might Be Giants Minneapolis Concert reviews
First Time attending an Opera
"I love this classical piece of art. It was superb. All performers were great singer. Great job everyone! Being that I’m only 25, and usually into more contemporary type of art, it took me a while to warm up to the style of the play. However, as the play continued, it became So intriguing. This was a great way for three young ladies to enjoy a night out. I would someday love to see a more modern twist to this classical piece. It was thrilling and exiting at the same time to wonder what was going to occur during the next scene.
Ps. Try not to sit in rows higher than row F, it was a little difficult to hear much of what was going on."
