| Girl of the Golden West : 4 of 5 | |

 Before this performance, I had never heard of this Puccini opera, set in the California gold rush, full of miners and gambling and whisky. I was pleasantly surprised - Girl of the Golden West features a semi-lighthearted plot, but still manages enough drama to support those soaring Puccini arias, and the cast did a fine job, too. The sets were incredible, including a snow-topped mountain that looked very real as people hiked around on it. This opera definitely isn't a tear-jerker, but I did manage to feel something for the characters and really enjoy the performance.
