The Vienna Opera was forced to scramble a substitute Falstaff for the second night of its current run.

Ambrogio Maestri dropped out of the fat suit. Paolo Rumetz stepped in.

Very effectively, we hear.

    I guess it’s slightly besides the point but apparently Maestri is one of the few singers who don’t actually use a fatsuit for this role.
