Letter: 'Die Fledermaus' was
great performance
What a delightful Sunday
afternoon it turned out to be.
Rimrock Opera's performance of
"Die Fledermaus" was full of humor

the orchestra pit. The local talent
is amazing, and the Chorus for Kids
is indicative of what the future
holds for the opera stage. "Brava
Diva" to all who participated.
