The Daily Mail had a tipoff about Cherie Blair, sitting in the back of a box, there to hear her 12 year-old Leo sing in the chorus.
We had a reported sighting of Roberto Alagna, who has never sung at the Coliseum but came to see how Calixto Bieito’s production looked in its London transfer.
Any other unlikely faces?
Nobody with any sense, that;s for sure
Not so. It was an interesting performance, very musical.
Some of these opera productions make me glad I’ve a CD player which is audio only.
