  • It's Friday, people!

    OK Question: Why does Tom have a wig and Stafford not have one? Doesn't Stafford rate a wig? Was Tom's own hair not as awesome as Stafford's? What is the story here? ;)

    I think we need to start scrutinizing wig and hair choices in these (have we exhausted costuming?) Wig, no wig, what kind of wig, little hair pieces, clip-on pony tails. Hair: seventies hair, eighties hair, etc. Fluffed up, slicked back, mashed down, etc. Fertile ground, indeed.

  • @drtmuir Wig and hair choices are a topic worthy of debate indeed. Also, facial hair.

    The wig in this production looks kind of silly, but I love the widow's peak. Every self-respecting villain must have a widow's peak.

  • Stafford Dean's porn moustache.

  • THE BEST DON GIOVANNI WITH SIEPI.

  • @thesir27ok, i see. thanks.

  • @anzolettilino sleeping with = sex. it's a figure of speech. but yeah, i suppose he plans on seducing them first, too

  • @thesir27 sleeping? what do you mean, seducing?

  • I love how the music changes when he starts talking about sleeping w/ all the women while everyone is dancing. So epic.

  • @Sieglinde84 thomas allen and Cesare siepi are the best don ever!

  • Thomas is awesome. He has that "predator" aura the Don needs and he sings like a god. But he'll always be Don G and Almaviva to me - I can't believe him when he plays a nice innocent guy, he has such a "Don" face :D

  • amazing italian! he speaks and sing it like an italian!(and beter, i am' italian).

  • @ernestalba it is "teco ancor quella cerca menar" see2;00.
