March 30 - April 2 Midsummer, the opera

Note: This blog must be posted by midnight Thursday night, April 2. Then you are free to have a relaxing spring break.
Write about your reactions to the performance we saw on Sunday of A Midsummer Night's Dream. There is much to write about, so don't write the same thing that someone else writes about. Examples of debatable points you might make:
"Operas in English work better than other languages."
"I love the sound of the counter tenor."
"The setting in the school was very effective."
"Puck works well as a spoken part."
"Operas in smaller theaters are better than in big theaters."
These are only a few examples of a point you might make and then use specific details to support your point of view. Create your own debatable point and defend it. Make it interesting.
