lady_in_the_darkYour doyenne guiltily just realized that she has not yet taken a moment to pen a “thank you” note to that member of the cher public who sent her the George Steel watch as a holiday gift. In the spirit of that timepiece, La Cieca would like to update yesterday afternoon’s open-and-shut, 100% certain, no questions asked posting that announced in no uncertain terms that the Met will revive the Franco Zeffirelli version of Tosca in 2010-2011. 

One detail that La Cieca overlooked: in fact, the Met will not revive the Zeffirelli.  According to her backstage soupçonnier, “It’s Bondy – no ifs, no ands, no buts. Absolutely unshakeable position: Bondy, Bondy, Bondy.”

And so, the moral (with which you cannot quarrel)? Don’t make up your mind!
