愛の妙薬 (Erwin Schrott) Pays Tribute to Japan

Schrott Check Out His Tee Shirt
Uruguayan barihunk Erwin Schrott is starring as Dr. Dulcamara in a new production of the The Elixir of Love, which opens tomorrow in Valencia. After seeing some football players (soccer to the American readers) wearing uniforms with their names in Japanese as a tribute to the earthquake and tsunami victims in Japan, Schrott decided to ask the costume department to make him a special shirt to wear on stage. (Erwin, how about a photo from the front?).

Performances run through April 8 and you can find additional information on the Palau de les Arts website.

Here is Schrott performing as Dr. Dulcamara at the Macerata Opera Festival in 2008:

    The Macerata Elisir actually dates back from July 2002 (I was there! :))
