Houston Grand Opera just started its first Ring Cycle, and it's my very first. I'm not disappointed. Rhine Maidens in their own floating aquariums, giants in Rock-Em-Sock-Em Robot suits, and Erda shows up at the end, dressed like the hive queen from Alien to be all "doom on you!" to Wotan. It was pretty awesome. Oh, and Valhalla was composed of supers, who were suspended Cirque du Soileil style from the ceiling. O_O
