NaNoPoblano 2019: November 2 – Day 1 of Posting!
Go NaNoPoblano (National Blog Posting Month) (https://cheerpeppers.wordpress.com/ !
Yes, I’m doing it again (I believe I missed last year, but I’m back for 2019!) But, this year, the “rules” are a bit different: Participants are committing to 30 days of blog activities– 10 days of posts, 10 days of reading/commenting, and 10 days of sharing posts through any other platform.
So, today is posting, and I’ve decided on my “theme” for posting: suggestions from the comments. So, yesterday, bodhisattva in training suggested I post about the opera I said I was going to with mom last night, so I am….right here, right now!
The opera was Missing (https://pacificopera.ca/event/missing/), about missing and murdered indigenous women. We saw it last year for the first time and had to go back. A very uncomfortable but important subject, and if you ever get a chance to see it, do! I cried last time and this time, and cry just thinking about it.
This is where it was (it was sold out, and there was a big line-up waiting to get in when we got there).

This is part of the stage set before it started – the staging and lighting for this is amazing.

The program

Live musicians, with a very interesting instrumentation (lots of really low instruments).

So, if anyone has a suggestion for my 2nd NanoPoblano post, which will be in a couple of days, let me know!
Don’t forget to check out the other amazing Cheer Pepper NanoPoblano team blogs (https://cheerpeppers.wordpress.com/2019-team/) and comment! And, stay tuned tomorrow for a bit of Sharing.
And feel free to join in yourself. Cheers!!

Wonderful start! Very interesting about going to an opera, as I’ve never been to one. 🙂
I’ve been to many, played for many, sung in many…this one is exceptional.
It sure does seem to be. Glad you get out to do these interesting things in your area. 🙂
Thanks for sharing about the opera 🙂 and wow what a fascinating topic it was!
It is.
