The opera was a great success. Photos of the performance are online in the Acis and Galatea Photo Album. (They are somewhat blurry stills. But you can see the joy on the faces of the singers.) The entire performance was recorded by two DVD cameras. If you want a copy, please email the director.
The comments in the audience included, "I sat there with a grin on my face for two hours." "It was fantastically entertaining." "The singing and instrumental music were amazing." "The movement on the stage, facial expressions, and vitality of the performance was totally refreshing." "Everybody on stage was having so much fun."
Opera Non Troppo is holding auditions for the opera, Acis and Galatea, by Handel.
