You know the old saying "birds of a feather flock together?" 🦆 "During the years Cincinnati Opera performed at the Cincinnati Zoo, interaction with—an interruption by—the Zoo’s primary residents was a frequent occurrence. Here, the cast of the 1949 production of ANDREA CHENIER gets acquainted with a feathered fan: (L to R) Stella Roman, Kurt Baum, Thelma Altman, and Frank Valentino." -Cincinnati Opera #ThrowbackThursday #CincinnatiOpera
