London theatre dress code
Deep Foiled Malls writes: That goes for London in general. Londoners are not once to take offence at lousy dress. There are too many antipodeans there that have already lowered the tone. Doesn't Harrod's still turn away those would-be customers it considers improperly dressed? -- Transpose hotmail and mxsmanic in my e-mail address to reach me directly. |

Following up to opera performances are sometimes more formal. Covent Garden more so than ENO. Yes, but I've worn a t-shirt (but no shorts or hiking boots!) at Covent Garden too. As pointed out, it does get warm in opera houses. It seems to me to be the most sensible dress, even if some strange posters think it ruins the 'mood' or the 'groove' or whatever it is it's meant to ruin. -- David Horne- www.davidhorne.net usenet (at) davidhorne (dot) co (dot) uk |

It would need to be warm, naked from the waist down. Actually I saw a production by Opera Factory in which the singers were all nude. -- Mike Reid Wasdale-Thames path-London-Photos "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk" -- you can email us@ this site Eat-walk-Spain "http://www.fell-walker.co.uk" -- dontuse@ all, it's a spamtrap |

Following up to nitram
I bought veg there once, silly prices. We spent an afternoon there once and came to the conclusion that in general that it was for people with more money than sense. there are some things worth buying, the cheese is one. If they have something you cant find elsewhere, then maybe pay the price. I tend to prefer Harvey Nicks, Selfridges, a good Waitrose or Borough Market. -- Mike Reid Wasdale-Thames path-London-Photos "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk" -- you can email us@ this site Eat-walk-Spain "http://www.fell-walker.co.uk" -- dontuse@ all, it's a spamtrap |

The Rheinmaidens were nude in a recent Covent Garden production of Das Rheingold, and Salome has been nude there before. -- David Horne- www.davidhorne.net usenet (at) davidhorne (dot) co (dot) uk |
