Today we bought tickets for 15 euro to see the opéra Orphée aux Enfers. One very cool thing about Avignon is that there are such interesting things within walking distance. Also, it was cute because Tomas, Hugo and Marie were in one of the scenes. We understood the general gist of the production due both to prior knowledge of the myth as well as the fact that the songs were subtitled (and sung) in French. Unfortunately, there was a lot of speaking in the opera, which made parts difficult to understand, as they tended to speak very fast. Oh well, overall, a very good show.
Anyhow, classes start tomorrow so we'll see how often I update this sucker. Now, I'm off to read some of La résistance expliquée à mes petits-enfants for class tomorrow.
