Opera at City Hall.

Tonight you can see a free performance of Rigoletto broadcast live both on the civic center plaza and in the Frost Amphitheater at Stanford, starting at 8pm.

For all info, go here. The first simulcast of Madame Butterfly was a blast and looked nothing like the photo-montage which illustrates this post.

Rigoletto is an opera to make opera skeptics love opera, and this production features some seriously impressive singers, so go give it a try. It's free, the weather seems fine, and from the previous simulcast, the giant screen and the sound quality are really nice. BYO booze, drink a sip every time Rigoletto says "Maledizione!" and we guarantee you a warm evening.
