Good News/Bad News comes from WSNC Member Andy Rombakis:
 
The bad news: Greece is in the middle of a horrible financial crisis.
The good news: this is not stopping them from building a multimillion-Euro cultural center and fantastic new opera house (so typically Greek, but it looks like it is coming from private funds donated by the Niarchos family.)
 
The good news: It looks like they plan to mount a brand new Ring cycle production (Also Strauss’ Elektra and Salome)
The bad news: It looks like it will be just one installment per year. No news yet about a complete Ring in festival format.
The good news: That’s a good excuse to visit Greece 4 times!
