Always such great talent and amazing performances. Such a tremendous asset to our community. My memories go back 40 years, from taking ballet to attending my first play in 1981, just 9 years old.

The original opera house in Frankfurt is now the Alte Oper (Old Opera), a concert hall and former opera house in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It was inaugurated in 1880 but destroyed by bombs in 1944. It was rebuilt, slowly, in the 1970s, opening again in 1981. Many important operas were performed for the first time in Frankfurt, including Carl Orff's Carmina Burana in 1937. The square in front of the building is known as Opernplatz (Opera Square). The Alte Oper is located in the inner city district, Innenstadt, within the banking district Bankenviertel. The citizens of Frankfurt, who had to finance the structure (initial estimate two million marks), were rather sceptical at first.[citation needed] Alluding to the inscription on the frieze

Play - Annie - was fine, but seating and acoustics not so much. Definitely lives up to its name. Rest rooms limited, just 3 toilets in women's rest room. Stage visibility limited due to nearly flat floor...
