My weekend of culture!

This past weekend I got to enjoy some of what makes London so great - culture!

On Friday night I went to see Doctor Atomic. Doctor Atomic is a modern opera about the making of the first nuclear bomb. It was performed by the English National Opera, which means that it was sung in English. It was pretty cool, the special effects and video screens were really fun to watch too. The music was a little too modern (no real songs, more like screeching!) for my taste though.

On Sunday I went to the exhibit of Le Corbusier, a French architect. This was shown at The Barbican. It was a great way to spend a Sunday. They had all the designs and models from his many buildings, and they also had the artwork that inspired him, and the furniture he designed too. I really enjoyed it.
