BWW Reviews: Verdi's 'Big Belly' Rumbles with Laughter in Met's New FALSTAFF by Richard Sasanow

"Dying is easy; comedy is hard" says the old show business quip. If anything, opera comedy is even harder. Why is it so difficult? Because it offers so many opportunities to do a disservice to the composer, the artists and the art form in one fell swoop. However, Robert Carsen's antic new production of Verdi's FALSTAFF at the Met, vividly conducted by Music Director James Levine, makes it look easy.
