The Total Package
by Suzanne CalvinA fun piece from Pegasus News’ Teresa Gubbins on her experience at Friday night’s opening performance.
Additionally, there was this comment on the “Sulphur Springs News-Telegram” about being at the right place at the right time…just about all night long:
“Laura Bush was there last night … I walked into the building with Roger Staubach — I have photographic evidence — I rode in the elevator with Mrs. Winspear (her husband gave the initial $42 million to get the project started), I saw the Sultan of Brunei – or his first born male child because no one else on the planet has the kind of money to fund the diamonds he was wearing last night … and his date had on an honest-to-GAWD diamond tiara — I sat one row back and about 10 seats down from the incarnation of Marilyn Monroe (no photographs, though – it woulda been too gauche … and I walked back to the parking garage with Gary Cogill (I have photographic evidence of that) …
Oh, yeah … and the opera was AMAZING …. there are no words. Everyone just needs to take their ears to Dallas and let the fabulous sound and experience wash over them. ”
Now, is that a great testimonial, or what?
