Our editor JJ‘s article introducing La traviata is now available on the New York City Opera’s website. La Cieca is so cheered by this good news that she can, for the moment, refrain from ranting at length about the de-retirement of the egregious Dr. Miller, whose production of L’elisir d’amore will rear its ugly head at the State Theater in the spring of 2007. (Medical doctor, performer, art historian, stage director, dramaturg, junk sculptor, and now congenital liar — is there anything that polymath can’t do?) There, aren’t you glad she didn’t go on at length?
