We have two tickets available for the September 5 performance of the
Atlanta Opera Company production of Benjamin Britten's 

	"Albert Herring."

These are excellent seats in the eighth row, center of the orchestra
section of Woodruff Arts Center.  Our price was $59.00 each; we ask
$90.00 for the pair.

Contact Tim Drabik at drabik@solaris.gatech.edu, phone 853-9449.

A brief synopsis of the opera follows:

			Albert Herring

	"This clever spoof of Victorian pomposity opens with lady Billows and
	her high-minded committee trying to find a suitable virgin to be
	crowned May Queen.  To their dismay, there is none to be found, and
	so, to teach the girls a lesson, they elect a new May *King*--the
	reluctant Albert Herring.  Britten is at his wry comic best in this
	tale of lost innocence.  One of this century's leading composers, he
	has fashioned a delightful comedy, where puritanical values and witty
	dialogue create an entertaining evening for everyone."
