Sleepless In Miami

While not being able to sleep (for various reasons) I decided to look for things to do. I have a friend who expressed interest in going to see stuff at the Performing Arts Center.

So I went to the PAC website and downloaded the performance schedule. There are some good things going on - but not anytime soon. November or December the Bizet opera "Carmen" will be there - that could be cool. There are also various orchestra performances - next year.

I also checked the Florida International University school of music schedule. There are some cool things going on there too - for cheap! Since I went there I can get tickets for $5. But the season is sort of over, it starts up again in the fall.

Same for the New World School Of The Arts. Most of the stuff that New World puts on is free, or really cheap.

But there was one thing I found. A Fathom Events presentation. What Fathom does is bring live or recorded performances to your local movie screen. Can't go to London to see a concert? Well if Fathom Events covers it - you just go to a nearby movie theater and catch it there.

Wednesday there will be a one time screening of Mozart's opera The Magic Flute.

So I ordered two tickets. Ill pick them up Wednesday. Then go see the opera. There will be at least one magical flute - or I will demand my money back.

I still can not seem to get to sleep.
