La Jolie Parfumeuse

Went to a performance of Offenbach's "Pretty Perfume Seller" at the Jerusalem Acadmey of Music and Dance. Good performance of an operetta with lovely, though forgettable, music and ridiculous plot. As we got off the bus at the Hebrew University's Givat Ram campus and looked around to orient ourselves, a little woman in her mid-70s said, in Hebrew with a thick Russian accent, "You look like you're here for the operetta."
