Dallas Opera – Romeo & Juliet

posted in books, movies, tv, family |

My daughter is in her second year of learning French at school. The teacher put together a nice field trip and the students boarded the big yellow school bus this evening (yes, on a Saturday!) and headed towards Dallas. They are attending the Dallas Opera’s rendition of Romeo & Juliet, sung completely in French. I think this is a wonderful opportunity for anyone learning a new language and I hope my daughter enjoys it. I can’t wait to hear how she liked it, but, in the mean time, here’s a little snippet I found I YouTube.

    What a great fieldtrip. I am sure that most of the kids wont appreciate it but it is good exposure for them.

    I took French in high school, too. I can still read it pretty well, but I can’t speak it very well. Way to go for your daughter!
