I saw the sets for The Letter for the first time at Wednesday’s stage rehearsal, and I also heard the Santa Fe Opera pit orchestra play the first four scenes. Both experiences were knock-me-down exciting. Fortunately, I was able to connect with Twitter via wi-fi from my seat in the theater, so I “livetweeted” the entire rehearsal in considerable detail.
To find out how it all went, go to my Twitter page and start scrolling. (The tweets are in reverse chronological order.)
