"Living in the digital age is a blast, isn't it? Nowadays great operatic and ballet performances that would previously cost you $200 (not to mention a $2,000 plane ticket) have become regular fixtures at your local cinema. Palace Opera & Ballet are at the forefront of this truly democratic revolution."
