A night at the opera

For Anna's birthday I bought her a ticket to The Phantom of the Opera. The production staged here in Seoul is an international touring company, and was sung in English with a Korean translation projected on screens on the both sides of the stage.

According to Wikipedia, Phantom holds the record for the highest-grossing entertainment-related event of all time. Judging from the capacity crowd tonight, Korea is making its contribution towards the maintenance of that record.









The show, appropriately enough, took place in the Opera House, one of four performance spaces that make up the
Seoul Arts Center complex. This picture of Anna and Jessica was taken before the show on the plaza outside the Opera House.
