Pumping irony
Which complex new staging has the Met crew jumping through hoops? The resulting backstage congestion may result in the draft of an estranged director for a comeback!

The Nose …”All members of the production team are making their Met debuts.”
hehe
Can’t guess who’d be called in, but would you really call Dr. Miller to fix a problem?
Silly people, it’s Mary Zimmerman.Money is tight.Carmen will now be performed on the set of “From the House of the Dead”, Act 1 in the barracks. The debris that falls will hit in Act IV as Escamillo scores a hit in the arena. Carmen will die but the eagle will fly.
Now that they have exhausted themselves butchering Hoffmann, one can look forward to the rest of the season and hope all goes well.
Have Attila rehearsals started already? Presumably this must be The Nose!
Dr. Miller must perforce stage THE NOSE in sensible 1940s costumes, set in Peterborough ( helpfully, a cathedral city as the libretto requires) so some nice Cambridge local colour (age 18-22) can be worked in.
Bring back the Zefirelli Tosca because the Rheingold is too big
