  1. So near the end of Parsifal i was riding the waves of glorious music but so annoyed at jesus patriarchy stuff that i was like, the fallen flowers say fuck your spear! They have hammers and guitars and are (in my mind) swarming the stage and the holy well! It's the people's sacred spring now!! Then as the music crescendoed i realized... RIOT GRRAIL!!! #SFOpera

  2. Wowww Parsifal is so wild and strange. I'm at the dress rehearsal! Highly recommend it! Just weird af #SFOpera

  3. @leapingwoman some opera, some show tunes from trans and queer opera singers with a light show and full orchestra, inaugural Pride concert for #SFOpera

  4. Modern Opera – Just Say Ouch (The Handmaid’s Tale)

    We went to see “The Handmaid’s Tale” at SF Opera last night. I read the novel back in … I dunno, 1988? 1989? Somewhere around there. I knew this was going to be a megadowner. Then again, it’s not like “La Bohème” is a laugh riot or anything. But here’s the thing: it’s modern, and the music and libretto were written within my children’s lifetimes.

    The historic SF War Memorial Opera House is always a treat to visit and the performances were equally stellar. If you are in the area, go get tickets. sfopera.com/operas/the-magic-f

  6. I’m looking forward to Il Trovatore at #SFOpera. Pretty sure I passed @evacide in the drink line! #HackersAtTheOpera

  7. If you're at all opera curious, the new production of Madama Butterfly at #SFOpera this month is a revelation.

  8. Settling down to watch SF Opera’s production of Gluck’s “Orpheus and Eurydice.” I’m watching online. Airplaying the sound and vision to my TV from my laptop. This production has received excellent reviews. Really looking forward to it. Jakub Józef Orliński, a counter-tenor, is supposed to be excellent.
