Frank and Kathryn saw each other at two opera performances. Frank and his wife Jere attended Marble City Opera’s “I Can’t Breathe.” Frank was relieved that he didn’t have to help clean up or stack chairs.
As Frank and Jere were settling into their seats as Kathryn came over to say hi. Kathryn hugged Jere and would have hugged Frank but he missed the attempted hugging.
Frank and Jere went to dinner with Kathryn and her husband James before a performance of Knoxville Opera’s Mefistofele. When they got to the Tennessee Theatre, they talked with critic Alan Sherrod who said he watches the Frank & Friends Show. Alan’s website is https://ArtsKnoxville.com/
Kathryn chatted with Mary Costa at intermission. Mary was the voice of Princess Aurora in Disney’s Sleeping Beauty and played Cunégonde in the 1959 London premiere of Leonard Bernstein's Candide. Frank spoke with conductor Reginald Houze, who conducted a banda in Mefistofele and will conduct Marble City Opera’s The Copper Queen. Reginald said he wanted to be a guest on the Frank & Friends Show.
Kathryn posted a photo of herself trying on her costume for The Copper Queen. Frank puts it on the screen alongside a painting of Julia Lowell. Tickets are available at https://www.MarbleCityOpera.com/tickets
Kathryn and Frank have been Facebook friends for five years. They have different memories of when they first met. Frank didn’t recall interviewing Kathryn about La Traviata but he found the May, 2017 interview posted on Facebook. When is the appropriate time to become Facebook friends?
Frank uses Facebook as a substitute for LinkedIn in the areas of comedy, radio, and television. Frank posts about his professional interests but tends to save his personal stories for this podcast.
Kathryn will be out of town for a few opera jobs. Frank will need a few fill-in co-hosts when she’s away.
