Kudos to 'Carmen'

I took my 15-year-old skateboarding baskeball-playing son to see the last show of "Carmen" on Sunday.

It was his first opera, and he really liked it.

Of course, casting Jennifer De-Dominici in the title role helped. She's amazingly hot -- and she wonderfully captured the spirit of the fiery gypsy.

I've been impressed with how far the Opera Theatre of the Rockies has come. "Carmen" was a production worthy of a Central City.
