Hello all! It's Brenda again. Chad and I are both busy being studious, but because his deadline is tomorrow, I'm taking blog duties for the week! However, I'm quite tired, so this will be a photo heavy blog! :-)
I got back to the States on Saturday after a whirlwind week! Last Monday was the last show at Glyndebourne, then we had a day off, then Wednesday we were back in rehearsals to re-stage the show for the performance on Thursday at the Royal Albert Hall in London. We left Lewes on Wednesday night to head up to London, and I have to say I was rather sad to say goodbye to that charming little town! But being in London to perform at the Proms was an absolutely incredible experience. What a way to end my time at Glyndebourne! The cast had a great time partying after the show, and then the next morning I was on a flight back to Frankfurt. I was in Germany for less than 24 hours, and then I was off to the US to see my darling law student husband! Though both of us have a lot of work to do, it's still great being around each other, and taking breaks together! I think Chad's starting to get used to the schedule, but I have to say, I'm really glad I don't have to do all that reading!!
Well, sorry to say, but I'm going to end it there. Hope you all have a great week!

My costume pile for Rinaldo. I doubt I'll ever have a
costume like that again!!

Ommegang beer from upstate NY! Memories of Glimmerglass Opera...

Around 6,000 people came to the performance!!
What a difference three months can make. Chad posted this same shot
on May 24th, right after we got to Lewes. Such different colors!
