We went to the teatro Angela Peralta to ask for information about shows coming to San Miguel de Allende. At the box office we heard the orchestra playing classical instruments, they were rehearsing next room for the Opera L’elisir d’amore by Gaetano Donizetti which was about to start in the next hour. We loved the sound so much that we wanted to buy tickets but the show was sold out, there were tickets for next day, we took a chance with Galeria seats (rear mezzanine). Nedless to say the sight wasn’t the best, we have to move constantly in our seats to be able to see the whole stage, but all the voices of actors were so good, it was all worth it, I was really impressed by Anabel de la Mora, the soprano in the role of Adina, she received the ovation of stand up crowd.
As usual, photos were not allowed but nobody said anything about sketching. So there’s the view from up. I couldn’t fit the screen above the stage, yes, a screen with subtitles in Spanish and English, since the Opera was played in Italian. It was a fun night.
