Mrs. Britten et al. in Paris - 28 November, 1934
from Journeying boy : the diaries of the young Benjamin Britten 1928-1938, page 236:
Mom & I go to Opera after for Gounod's Romeo & Juliet - not very great stuff, but charming - I'm afraid we were both too tired to enjoy it - esp. as the show was rather dead.
