TFL and I just got back from seeing a production of Don Giovanni. The sight of Donna Elvira in dominatrix costume was a little jarring, but the production was decent overall.
A couple of really wonderful voices, and the rest solid enough that you weren't waiting for the next cringe-inducing moment.
Mozart is always wonderful, is he not?
YES.

I saw a production of DG a couple of years back. Someone brought their five/six year old daughter - and I kept thinking, "Mozart, sure, but do you want to start her with an opera with a rape scene?!"
