Der Freischutz

Tonight, I went to a nice dinner with friends from work at a little local seafood place near the office called the "Black Pelican."  

After, we headed to Norfolk for an evening of culture at the Harrison Opera House to see the final show of the Magic Marksman, or Der Freischutz by Weber. I'm always enamored at the art deco atmosphere that just makes me nostalgic for a time I never knew.

I was surprised that it was in English. I was really ready for some fine German opera! It was still lovely. I loved the sets! This was a wonderful opera and I truly enjoyed the rendition that the Virginia Opera took. Excellent job!
