This week Tuesday, a bunch of students from LA Academy went on a fieldtrip to watch a very outstanding OPERA! first of an opera is a play or show that instead of people talking like they do in a movie they sing every word. Opera's are not in english they are in another language most of the time they are in LATIN. So most of us don't understand a word. Though the theatre does provide a translator at the top, to translate something in english but its not always there so you have to pay attention. The entire trip was amazing, and an experience like that is unforgettable. The Barber Of Seville is mainly about love and romance. Not like Romeo & Juliet, but there is of course conflict. The main characters in the story are:
Figaro, barber
Rosina, ward of Dr.Bartolo
Count Almaviva, alias "Lindoro"
Dr.Bartolo, doctor and foster father of Rosina
Don Basilio, Music Teacher
All of these characters play the biggest parts in the story. The entire story is based on love and forbidden love. The BARBER is the one who nearly causes the main idea of it. I rather not spoil the entire thing, but watching an opera is a great experience for anyone who enjoys drama, and stories that are told in way you can visualize it on a stage. The characters in this play sing at the top of their lungs, with no microphones or anything all natural. Hopefully someday you can experience what I or anyone who has gone to an opera soon.
