Arrived in the Mail...

...a big, glossy brochure from San Francisco Opera, telling me about all of the events associated with the upcoming premiere of Appomattox.

Both this brochure and the SFO Web site list the cast as follows:
  • Robert E. Lee: Dwayne Croft /Brian Leerhuber (10/24)

  • Ulysses S. Grant: Andrew Shore*

  • Remaining cast: TBA
Really? It's opening in four weeks and the balance of the cast is TBA? Are they still holding auditions, or is it a two-character opera, or what??
