Cuilin To be in that society sounds exhausting!!!! Also if you were a performer can you imagine how distracting it would be with everybody just showing up and leaving whenever. And owning a house in Manhattan big enough to have a ballroom is hard to imagine today. 3d
mcctrish @Cuilin it‘s almost exhausting to read about society - did Archer and #winoforever ‘s cousin have a relationship? 3d

Ruthiella It does sound exhausting and performative. I read this years ago and saw the movie when it came out. I remember the basic outline of the plot but none of these details. 3d
JacqMac It doesn‘t just sound exhausting, but also uncomfortable. 3d
JenlovesJT47 Yay I‘m caught up! 3d
Bookwormjillk New flex is hosting a ball but going to the opera instead of helping my staff get ready 3d
Clare-Dragonfly @Bookwormjillk But only, like, one scene of the opera. 3d
ElizaMarie @Cullin that‘s what I was thinking too- they are horrible audience members! 3d
julieclair @Cuilin @ElizaMarie It seems like the opera was only an excuse to see and be seen, and then gossip about whom you saw and who saw you. So disrespectful to the performers. But I don‘t think these people worried much about disrespecting people who were “beneath” them. 3d
Cuilin @julieclair @ElizaMarie yes, they probably see performers as some form of servant existing to cater to them. Ugh 3d
