I’m taking my wife to the opera (her first in 15+ years) and we’ll be doing the Standing Room tickets (which have fantastic views if you go early enough, plus they’re really cheap).
However, I don’t know what to expect in terms of intermissions. I know the Italians have plenty (so there are ample opportunities to stretch ones legs), but the only German opera I’ve seen standing is Wagner’s Ring Cycle, and I would like to think I won’t be subjecting her to a similar experience (in terms of strain on the legs).
So, any Dopers know?
