With portable video projectors cheaply and readily available these days it seems improbable that subtitles could not be provided for regional productions if they were so desired. To talk of a lack of facilities seems a poor argument for having to perform productions only in English - and note that my objection surrounds Oz Opera's policy of touring productions 'only' in English. I certainly wouldn't see a problem with some productions being presented in English as is the case with Opera Australia. But the question remains, why would Oz Opera choose to adopt this approach to begin with? Could it be that they are making patronising assumptions about the taste of regional audiences? Let's hope not!
