Jack Walsh: Schlepporello
Quotes
-
Donald Giovanni : [all lines sung in recitative] Well, here we are, Schlepporello, in a brand new city! With a brand new set of beauties to behold! What more could anyone ask for?
Schlepporello : [both lines spoken] How about an aria?
Donald Giovanni : What do you mean, "how about an aria"?
Schlepporello : I mean why don't I get an aria in this opera?
Donald Giovanni : Schlepporello, you nerd! There are three perfectly good reasons why you don't get an aria in this opera. A: the composer didn't write one. B: the-reason-he-didn't-write-one-is-because-you're-supposed-to-be-a-mute-you're-not-even-supposed-to-be-able-to-talk-much-less-sing-so-please *shut up!* And C: I heard you sing down in the dressing room, and you sound like a donkey in heat!
