Thank you so much for this information about the Rome Festival. That was exactly the kind of information that is helpful and concrete.
My only concerns would be that, if the housing accomodations are old, they may be very dusty; and that a role would be prepared, staged, and coached for only one performance.
Are the students cast in a role before they arrive in Rome? That is a major problem with the Aspen Festival, where a student can pledge to spend thousands of dollars for the summer, only to discover when she arrives that she'll be singing Mrs. Ott in Susannah (while she might have gone to a smaller program and sung a lead role).
Other than that, however, your answers have shown that Rome Festival is a fully legitimate company. Thank you so much for taking the time to address my multitudes of questions.
