 Fantastic performance! Great voices and acting. As newbies to Tacoma is was a little difficult to figure out parking near by. We will defenitely attend future events.

 Easy to buy tickets. Parking and entry were both easy. . Had one question beforehand which I emailed. I received a very quick and professional response from Silke Harper. She is great! I wish the seat cushions could be replaced. We are both seniors and our backs are sore! We are so glad to have a cultural outing in these economically depressed times. Thank you!

 I love the beauty and the intimacy of the Pantages Theater. Our Center Loge seats made the subtitles easy to see while taking in everything on stage. The story in the event brochure prepared us to follow the actions on stage. The Theater staff were very helpful.

 The answer below should continue that the section starting "con grande express." appears to have been cut, rendering the last notes of the opera less touching. MY name is Syra Puett, 1246 S. Huson, Tacoma. P.S. the first version that I saw starred Renata Tebaldi, but I am certainly not comparing that one with this one.

Review your experience with Tacoma Opera

 Linda and I have long had at least some degree of connection with Tacoma Opera, via attending productions, special opera events, and, over time, knowing many Tacoma Opera patrons. However, in more recent years, Tacoma Opera has become a local arts organization for which we have developed a stronger association, an association that has deepened through our ever-increasing respect for Lim and Chavalch Forgey, their diverse talents and the work they are doing.

 I had a good relaxing feeling before I even entered the theater. I was greeted very warmly at theater door. The person helped me very much with checking in.She was so warm and friendly. It was my first time using my ticket using my cell phone. I told myself that I need to get out more often. I was given the information where to go from there. Most HELPFUL . Thank You. .

 Along with the voices, the fluid, natural acting made this production a standout. Although Mimi (Kristin Vogel) had some trouble expressing the high notes, her voice blended seamlessly with Rodolfo's (Nathan Granner). I saw some audience tears at the end. All the principals made their characters come alive, and Benoit's (Miles Rind) turn provided welcome comic relief in a bass baritone that became the center of attention when he was on stage.

 I am glad that you pulled in a large audience of families. i hope you won new fans to fill the seats. As for my opinion about the production, I have seen so many versions of this one that i am probably not one to give a fair review. Just two comments: the singers sang their high notes too long, often to the detriment of the action. I don't understand why the Piu Sostenuto section of the fourth act was played forte. It is written pp to echo happier times. The wh

How did you like the event?

 Loved the tenor. Felt no chemistry between Rodolfo and Mimi and her volume on the frequent high notes hurt my ears. It would work outside, but too much for the space we were in. Musetta was sung and played well. My problem with the production was that I have seen too many Bohemes by the Met. Not fair to a small opera company. You guys did great. Loved the kids. Loved the community spirit. Long live opera!

 We greatly enjoyed the evening. At it, we visited with a male friend who is a singer and who has performed and studied opera, including in Italy. His comments helped affirm our own strong dominantly positive feelings about the performance. We felt the lead singers to be especially fine--but we felt that a couple of the support singers were a bit less so. For many reasons, we think it's wonderful and wise that children have been included in recent productions.
