Ginsburg & Scalia: Live on Stage!
If you hurry to the Kennedy Center tonight you can catch that dynamic duo as Justices Scalia and Ginsburg appearing in...an opera?
Luckily they're not singing:
Seriously, guys, I know the government is in budget-cutting crisis, but now you're taking work as extras?Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia will have nonspeaking roles Saturday night in a production by the Washington National Opera. They'll be dressed in black-tie attire and remain on stage for nearly 90 minutes during the opening performance of "Ariadne auf Naxos".
The opera depicts a serious opera company and a comedic troupe performing at the same time during a dinner party. The justices will play party guests.
Event organizers say Ginsburg and Scalia are opera lovers and have appeared in previous productions.
Here's a good weekend parlor game--what would you cast them as?
