OPERA MAN IS DOING AN OPERA!

[proud gonzo]

For all of you who have been asking when Will was going to perform somewhere, he's singing the title role in Mozart's Don Giovanni on March 1 and 3 at the University of Oklahoma in Reynolds Performing Arts Center. Tickets can be purchased at the Fine Arts Box Office, 11:30-5:30 M-F, (405)325-4101. Tickets are $17 for adults, $14 for seniors, $10 for students. There are other performances available, but Will's only singing on March 1st and 3rd. If you go the other days, you'll be pretty disappointed. Trust me.

Don Giovanni is basically Don Juan or Cassanova, so it's a pretty good story. And Will kicks ***.

[proud gonzo]

Seriously, *** is censored now? How lame is that ****.

[olevetonahill]

[nighttrain12]

A$$ is NOT censored! When I saw the subject line was Opera Man, I thought it was about Adam Sandler.

[proud gonzo]

Yeahhh, that joke has long ago run its course.

Very cool PG. Tell him me and the Mrs. said to break a leg.

Also....if we come.....do we throw roses at his feet or those little tiny airline liquor bottles after his Applause?

[Chuck Bao]

Thanks PG for the heads up. I have never seen an opera and I really want to hear Will sing.

Come on, Olevet, I know you want to go too! I'm sure that there will be an opera tailgate party, or, if not, we will arrange one. If you decide to go, I'll delay my return to Thailand from Feb 28 until after the March 3 performance. I mean how many times in a lifetime do you get a chance to hear opera sung by one of our own?

Ummm, PG, is there a dress code for an opera? Or, can we wear OU cap and gear that we wear to football games?

Haha--I don't know that bottles of booze thrown on stage would really have a great outcome, but I'm sure they would not be rejected afterwards

There's not particularly a dress code. Because it's on campus, a lot of students come to these, so you can get away with being fairly casual in terms of opera attire. Some students will wear jeans and t-shirts, undoubtedly, but they'll be underdressed. There also, assuredly, will be some blue-haireds from the opera guild wearing tuxedos and evening gowns, and they'll look out of place. Most people will be somewhere in the middle--slacks or khakis and a nice shirt and (jacket and/or tie optional) for the guys; cocktail dress or nice blouse and skirt/slacks for the ladies.

Sounds like a Plan

[proud gonzo]

Both performances are at 8 p.m. (Opera man most likely won't be able to come to a pre-opera tailgate, because he'll be warming up, getting into costume, etc.)

[olevetonahill]

How long they last?

[proud gonzo]

Will says the opera is about 2 hours long, no longer than two and a half. (Don Giovanni is usually a pretty long opera, I think, but they've made a lot of cuts.)

[olevetonahill]

Ima thinkin about making that long assed trip up there
Not sure yet tho

[proud gonzo]

Do it!

[C&CDean]

Do it!

Damn right. For the mother****ing culture of it all.

[Tulsa_Fireman]

Took my beautiful bride to Don Giovanni here at the Tulsa PAC and it was great. I ain't no opera guy but had an absolute blast and laughed through most of it.

Besides, you heathens need some culture.
