Verona in Italy and Carmen


Carmen was held in Verona, so we took everyone along. It was hot and there were about 10,000 to 12,000 people there according to Geoff's estimate. It is hard to believe. There were four scene changes of 20 minutes which was too much for two of our boys! The stage was huge and the cast included horses, carts and donkeys. The voices were able to be heard everywhere which was amazing! That was another late night as it didn't start until 9.30. Since we arrived just before start we had to sit in the back corner of our allocated area. Nearer the end we moved to the front and dashed off just as Carmen was killed by her upset boyfriend.
