My
average
note
is
only
relevant
to
the
fact
that
open
air
event
organizers
do
not
cancel
performances
even
in
case
of
heavy
rain.
We
planned
our
opera
night
6
months
in
advance,
booked
a
baby
sitter,
drove
45
minutes
and
prepared
the
best
we
could
for
the
rainy
weather
(raincoats
etc).
In
spite
of
all
this,
the
rain
was
so
strong
that
we
were
sitting
on
wet
seats
from
the
very
start,
and
we
could
see
water
going
in
the
mouth
of
the
singers.
After
the
first
act
we
and
many
other
people
started
to
leave.
I
find
that
it's
a
complete
disrespect
towards
the
performers
and
visitors.
Some
can
enjoy
opera
and
good
weather,
while
others
less
lucky
should
shut
up
and
bear,
while
still
paying
great
money.
Other
open
air
events
at
least
propose
to
pause
and
continue
when
conditions
allow
or
to
come
another
day.
When
I
called
the
ticket
office
a
few
days
before
to
ask
when
happens
in
case
of
a
rain,
I
was
told
that
the
performance
is
not
cancelled
in
case
of
a
light
rain,
only
when
there
is
a
strong
rain
and
we
will
be
informed
a
few
minutes
before
the
start.
However,
when
I
called
AFTER
the
opera,
the
person
on
the
phone
said
that
they
don't
cancel
for
any
rain,
even
a
strong
one.
Only
when
there
are
storms.
This
is
because
they
want
us,
quote
:"have
the
full
immersive
experience".
So
please,
at
least
get
your
story
straight
when
you
answer
weather
relevant
questions
to
avoid
misunderstandings
that
whatever
falls
on
us
from
the
sky
and
doesn't
kill
us
is
not
a
reason
to
cancel.
Most
people
go
to
opera
as
a
social
event
to
dress
nicely,
have
some
champagne
and
enjoy.
With
the
current
approach
at
Bregenz
opera,
one
cannot
be
sure
to
get
the
nice
experience,
one
was
hoping
for.
Other
than
that,
it
was
a
really
unique
and
nice
place
and
good
opera
(Madam
Butterfly)
