JULES MASSENET’S WERTHER - September 26, 2010 - San Francisco War Memorial Opera House


I hated this opera.  I don’t know why.  The voices were good.  The set design was confusing to me with lights that kept changing along the walls, with people coming up from the floor, around corners, and in between.  I actually left this opera at the first intermission and I’ve never walked out of one before. 

Perhaps there is a good reason this had not been performed in a long time.
