A night at the opera

We just got back from an incredible performance of Gershwin's American folk opera "Porgy and Bess." ("Summertime, and the livin´is ea----sy...") We happened to notice that it was playing at the opera house here in Malmo when we were walking around yesterday and inquired about tickets. We held off on buying them until we could secure a hostel for tonight and almost missed our chance. We did find a hostel with room (and just a block from the opera house!), but there was a crowd of people at the ticket booth when we got there this afternoon and we were sure it would be sold out. I´m so glad that it wasn´t, because the show was amazing. It was performed by the Cape Town Opera from South Africa and it just so happens that the cast is staying at our hostel, so we´ve been hearing little outbursts of opera singing ringing in the halls.
