11 Comments on Take Me Out To The Ballgame---er, Opera? AT&T Park in San Francisco?
Hi Lotte, would rathe watch an opera than see the DODGERS lose to the giants...
How fabulous, Lottie. I love going to the ballpark to watch a game. And to watch Rigoletto is going to be amazing. I hope you get to go.
Lottie - AT&T park is a great place to watch baseball it should be just as great for opera.
Will the opera singers sing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" at intermission?
Ron- Giants & Dodger-quite a rivalry there!
Jane, it sounds like a fun evening, doesn't it? AT&T Park is fabulous, and enjoying it for a FREE opera? Another 'only in San Francisco' moment!
Jim, it's fabulous venue. Last Saturday I was sailing on the bay; we passed the completely filled stadium while the ballgame was in session--quite an interesting perspective1
Phil, I guess if the Opera cast could sing the National Anthem there a few weeks ago, they could belt out "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" too! (Except for the little problem: they'll be singing at the Opera House while their performance is being simulcast.)
Lottie - This sounds like an amazing night of music. I love being outdoors and hearing a performance. I hope you go and have a great time!
Lottie-I know a lot of folks like the opera but I don't know if I would or not but it may be better than watching a ballgame.
Lottie, what a great idea! Verdi's Rigoletto at the Ballpark! I like the idea of the free simulcast. The Dallas Opera has done some simulcasts and they have been very successful.
Laura, there are so many fun, free activities, even in a large city. This one sounds great.
Sharon L., I like opera for the music and the stage settings; the plots? Not so much!
Sharon P - this simulcast is an annual event; a great gift to the community, and a great way to expose opera to a new audience.
Lottie: Wow ... this is one big opera stage! Sounds like a great place to hear beautiful music. Much like our Ravinia here in Chicago. I think the opera world is making strides at educating and recruiting new listeners. We have opera performances showing in movie theatres here in Chicagoland. Now a baseball field ... what next??
Gene
Hello Gene - yes, I think traditional arts are trying hard with their outreach programs. What next? Perhaps new fans will return to the opera house!
