April 27-May 3 Marriage of Figaro

If you haven't attended the opera yet, write about the movie and what you learned about Marriage of Figaro during the movie.
Otherwise, write about your reactions to the opera. Choose some aspect of the performance/production and talk about that. Please don't write about something someone else has already written about.
Pick something that you could debate. For example:
1. What other setting besides the 18th century could the opera be placed in? Defend your opinion.
2. A woman makes as good of a teenage boy character as a boy might. Defend your opinion.
3. If the opera seemed long, what techniques have you developed to help yourself stay focused?
4. The ensembles really didn't help advance the action of the play. Defend your opinion.
5. The music does clearly distinquish one character from the another. Explain.
Or pick your own debatable point and defend it. Mix it up and make it fun to read.
