We saw the same stage props waiting to be taken into the Arena in Verona when we were there at the end of May about 7 or 8 years ago. This must be an annual tradition.
The also had some gladiators outside who would pose with tourists for one dollar. The Roman warrior woman in a skimpy outfit approached my friend and asked, suggestively, "Would you like me to slay you?" He replied, of course, "Oh yes. Please, slay me."
WHEN JM!?!? When will I be there to watch Aida as well? I've got so much dreams I just hope even just half of them would come up to life in my existence!
These are wonderful shots JM! The Egyptian Statues in front of an Italian Structure makes it really interesting.

Did you see the show? Great photos.
There is something a bit surreal about these Egyptian pieces in front of Roman antiquity... but I like it.
So cool! Aren't we all in love with Roman ruins and Egyptian sculpture? Who ever expected the combination except in the Louvre?
