Attendees of tomorrow’s parterre meet and greet (pictured) are reminded that Our Own JJ will be available in the Bar Thalia area of Symphony Space beginning at 2:00 for ticket pickup and registration for what promises to be a truly staggering door prize to be awarded during the second intermission of Les Vêpres Siciliennes.
Stragglers will be happy to know there are still a few seats available to the HD transmission of the opera from the Royal Opera House. And if you’re not up for five hours of Verdi but happen to be in the neighborhood, do drop in either between 2:00 and 3:00 or after 8:00 pm to meet your fellow parterrians!
