I happened to be there that evening and I remember wondering why so many Mission District lesbians were waiting in line for standing room for Opening Night that year. We soon found out, and I actually saw fisticuffs with old tuxedoed patrons flailing away at the activists in the lobby. It was quite wild.Civic Centerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12362422142667230626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11380345.post-15551839467122854502010-09-14T14:46:21.281-07:002010-09-14T14:46:21.281-07:00hey mike,

I was going to swap my Nozze ticket for Werther, but perhaps I should reconsider and skip seeing a THIRD mediocre Aida at SFO.<br /><br />Minor point - Domingo's cross-country flight for Otello was in 1983.Lisa Hirschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14014924958428072675noreply@blogger.com
