fatal-attractionDawn Fatale (pictured) shares with us a horoscope:

Today you might want to do some research into a subject that fascinates you. You could be swept up in enthusiasm. You may, for example, be developing an infatuation with a movie star or musical performer. Maybe you will join their fan club and look for articles about them on the Web.. Give yourself time to have fun and to find out more!

“As far as I can tell,” Dawn concludes,”this means I’m going to become a stalker.” 
While we’re waiting for the news of Dawn’s arrest just outside the home of Jonas Kaufmann, La Cieca thought it would be fun to hear from you, the cher public, a) tales of operatic stalking, or b) advice for the aspiring stalker. Nota bene: your doyenne expects for you to change the names of the guilty parties in the most outrageous and campy ways imaginable.

La Cieca

James Jorden (who wrote under the names "La Cieca" and "Our Own JJ") was the founder and editor of parterre box. During his 20 year career as an opera critic he wrote for the New York Times, Opera, Gay City News, Opera Now, Musical America and the New York Post. He also raised his voice in punditry on National Public Radio. From time to time he directed opera, including three unsuccessful productions of Don Giovanni. He also contributed a regular column on opera for the New York Observer. James died in October 2023.
