Oh I love the opera and I really really love the Utah Opera!!!

Either in English, French, or my favorite Italian! Love, loss, and love again! Love it!…

Capitol Theatre is always such a lovely place to view an opera, though as a plus size woman the chairs are a bit small. The performance was great and we had such a lovely time. Ticket prices were good, though if you buy the cheap seats do it WAY in advance to get better seats. We paid 18 $ and sat pretty close to the stage!…
