Die Fledermaus Opera - Johann Strauss

In the beginning of November, the PLU Opera singers and the University Symphony Orchestra we part of the production of Johann Strauss' opera "Die Fledermaus" (The Bat).
Here are some pictures from the show. I could not take pictures of the actors because I was too busy playing. I didn't even get to see the whole performance because as you probably have guessed. . . I was playing! Anyway, the opera was performed 4 nights with two sets of cast members that performed 2 nights each. The orchestra played all four nights, except some people who could not make one of the performances (like me!)


Opening night! I got ready and my hair just looked so good! I had to take a picture!

Me once again with my amazing hair! Opening night!


Eric, siting there, doing nothing. . .


Luke. . . those 1st violins. . . .


During intermission. . . The Russian prince and the butler pouring "champagne" (sparkling cider). . . The prince was played by a girl in both casts, but this actress was hilarious! They were so funny out in the lobby I really wished I had a video camera!


Mom and Natasha, my cousin, they came to the performance on Saturday night.

Eric, me and Luke. The guys look really good in black! We went to the mall the night before opening night to get black shirts for them and I got myself a skirt at the same time! :)
