SOAP -- an Opera

When Peter Brandon, the director of this study-abroad program suggested that we should try to catch a play or a show at the Sydney Opera House, I thought it was kinda like suggesting "you could try to ride on air-force-one," or something that is nice-to-say but never really realizable.

Well, I am glad that was proven wrong! Today, we went to watch the show, SOAP at the Sydney Opera house. It was a 75 minute display of human strength and grace... there were acrobats, jugglers, and people who danced up and down ropes (not really sure what they are called.)

The show went by so fast that I wished it had been twice as long. And knowing that I usually cannot sit through movies or shows without falling asleep or yawning, that was something!
