The Damnation of Fist

"It doesn't matter who sings what. At some point, someone's fist is up someone else's rectum." No, actually that's not a memoir of operagoing in New York in the 1970s; rather, it's Shirley Apthorp's review of Calixto Bieito's production of Verdi's Macbeth in Frankfurt.

And isn't it nice to see a story about the Metropolitan Opera make the front page of the New York Times?
