January 23rd around 6:40 pm at the Opera: Just by chance, I met a Friend whose husband could not come to yesterday’s performance. She invited me to join her in her box. Even having a nice place on the 9th Row on the Orchestra level, I decided to change places. It had been quite a while since I had witnessed a performance from the second level of the Opera House. It would give me a chance to pay more attention to formations and analyze more the projection skills of some dancers in particular, as they should (in theory) not dance only for the first rows. I could not have been more disappointed, even without having my specs with me (I forgot them at home).
