At Bayreuth, Brünnhilde gives one finger to the booing audience
NewsAt last night’s final curtain calls for the end of the current Ring cycle, the Swedish soprano Irene Theorin was seen giving a one-finger salute to the audience, which was booing the cack-handed production.
The gesture may mean something different in Swedish.
One hopes.
UPDATE: Barbara Roeder writes: First some Boos for her, then pointing to people in the audience with a finger, and then her one finger… whole house booed back. I was speechless.
