An Afternoon at the Opera

Our local opera company performed Cinderella this month. I have always loved opera, but I've never seen a live performance before. I thought this might be a good show to introduce Marina to opera.

Marina chose to dress in her Cinderella costume for the show. It was a big hit! People told her she looked beautiful all afternoon.

The first act was nearly two hours long. Marina got a bit impatient. She kept asking when Cinderella would wear her ball gown. At least we got to see it before intermission. She had a snack and a drink of water before Act Two. It was shorter and Marina enjoyed it more. Overall she said she liked it and wants to go again soon.
