Don’t forget! Tomorrow … Magic Flute. Mozart. Kenneth Branagh.
Okay, so Mozart probably won’t be in the theater, and Branagh (as far as I know) won’t be singing. But I’m not about to miss this one!
And maybe this explains the Queen of the Night ear worm I had on my walk yesterday. Hmm.
Here’s your friendly reminder:
