What is that? I waited a year to find out. Lane and Dave, one of our really good friends, had been planning a surprise for a year. They always referred to it as project hotty. During the last year they would occasionally ask each other ambiguous questions in front of us, probably attempting to spike our curiosity. Yesterday was the day! Lane took care of everything including the babysitter. I just had to dress up and be ready by 12:30. Then Dave, Farrah, Lane and myself went to Portland for this...
I cannot begin to tell you how excited I was! I have never been to an opera of any kind. I have seen the movie for Phantom of the opera and I loved it. I also love the cd. Let me just say that it surpassed all my expectations! It was amazing!!! If you haven't gone to see it, next time they're in town, GO! After the opera we ate dinner at a wonderful place called Mama Mia. The whole thing was fabulous!! I had the best date with my husband. I can't wait to go see another opera!

I saw it in L.A. years ago and loved it, too. The songs were stuck in my head for months afterward. Glad you had such a special day!
I've never seen it. Someday. I'm glad Lane did this for you. What a fun surprise.
What a fun evening!!! I'm glad you guys had such a great time. I, too, love both the movie and the stage version. We are such kindred spirits. :)
Yes, I like this one! The non-english operas, not so much.
This is my favorite by far. When I was a little girl I used to watch the old black and white version. I've seen it once probably 6 years ago. So glad you enjoyed it what a great surprise!
