Blood and song

Number three in the fusion series is the San Francisco War Memorial & Performing Arts Center. Here you can see performances by our excellent city ballet troupe and opera company. Here you can also come to attend cultural and veteran-related events at the War Memorial side. I am delighted every time I walk by this building, or attend a show here, not just because the architecture is satisfyingly imposing, but because it tickles me pink that this city combines such disparate flavors as war and opera.
