The Phantom of the Opera in Buenos Aires

Last night we saw the Phantom of the Opera in Spanish in Teatro Opera in Buenos AIres.
We had no problem getting very good tickets a few days ahead by internet. They were cheaper than in New York, but very expensive for Argentina with all the service charges they added up to 265 $ pesos for the VIP upper super pulman, row 3, center. We enjoyed a the how a lot.
Everything was very good . We had seen the Phantom ages ago in New York. THe famous great chandelier falling from the roof was less dramatic here, I do not why because the chandelier itself was impossing. I highly recommend this show for any visitor in town, I took some of my grownup grandchildren the show ended aprox .9.40 PM and since the boys were starving we had some good pizza next door in a place call Cuartetos or something like that. Also before the show we found a nice cafe called Havanna(half a block, on the right facing the OPera) for a good cortadito with some alfajores of the wellknown brand Havanna ....

Oh, I sort of wish I had gone to this show, as I saw all the billboards. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you Graziella!
You all can find Havanna stores all around town, that is where we buy our alfajores to send to the US
