I would've thought the few on this board would be more up on this ...!

Very excited to see this.

Ack! Well in my defense, I don't follow the opera news very much.

Listening to the samples, this defiantly has Gilliam flavor. If only I lived in London...

3h10min ! That's a beast of an opera...

This opera is on in London 4 to 27 June.

And it will be beamed to many cinemas around the UK on 17 June.

A new Dreams interview with Terry will appear here in a few days, he talks about Benvenuto Cellini.

Anyone going to see it?

I will be watching it in my local cinema on June 17.

I'm seeing it on Thursday, as a graduation present.
I generally have no interest in opera apart from those occasional ones prefigured with the word 'rock', but I'm really looking forward to it.

Unfortunately, no screenings for us continentals. Will there be a screening on BBC2 again?
