First the barfing lady; then the tenor who tries to bust up the prompter's box -- a Wagnerian singer's best friend -- by violently demolishing it with his head.
The Met's Tristan is the drama llama that keeps on spitting.
What a headache! No, I don't have a headache, but I bet Gary Lehman, Tristan, does. At the top of the third and final act, the pallet he was laying on started to suddenly slide the down the steeply raked stage at a fast speed. He slid about 12 feet until his head slammed into the prompter's box. The audience gasped, some screamed, and his co-stars and stage managers ran to his rescue. It was very frightening, but after about ten minutes, he shook it off and the performance resumed.
More hilarity from direct witnesses at the ever-vigilant La Cieca.
