Tales of a Yankee Hobbit

On the life and mind of a traveler in Divaland. Think Samuel Pepys plus Anaïs Nin plus mid-life. Or not.

I am a singer of the soprano variety who thinks. A lot. I also read and rant. Single and aunt-y. Why Yankee Hobbit? Because I'm from Buffalo, NY and my Mom once called me her little Hobbit because of all of my adventures.

Domestic Hilarity

This will be brief. Come to the Moores Opera House tonight or Monday to see me sing Despina in Mozart's Cosi Fan Tutte. It's your basic sexual farce. I am one of the manipulators who is being manipulated in turn by a duplicitous older man with his own agenda.

Yeah, she's a maid, but so what. She's running things. Power is relative. No matter your station in life, you can, to some degree, control your destiny by taking and wielding your own power. Even if it only extends as far as maintaining your own personal dignity. Therein lies one of the secrets of the universe.

7:30 p.m. Saturday, January 27 and Monday, January 29. Moores Opera House. University of Houston Entrance 16 off of Cullen Blvd (at Elgin).

Tickets are $15 or $10 for students and seniors.

Have your ears been burning? I'm singing with Conspirare this week and you name has arisen frequently, always with great reverence. :-)
Sorry I can't see Cosi. I'm sure you are fab!
