i also dislike american opera, particularly Porgy and Bess, it just seems that europeans can only write opera, western opera is terrible, there is something missing from western opera, oh wait passion. I just saw a version of Porgy and Bess by some American company called living arts; they just toured australia and it was really amateur, the mix was shit, the lighting was shit. one of the stage crew answered his mobile phone on stage during a scene change. A M A T E U R, and just the opera in general bores me silly.
