We keep telling all of our young (under 30) single male friends that they
need to start going to the Lyric Opera to meet young ladies. We see more
& more 20-somethings at the opera with each season & the young women
"dress" for the occasion, even on a weeknight. Ironically, one of the
things that is introducing the public to opera is commercials, in which
we are hearing more & more opera.
