Bizarre photo of the day

New York’s Metropolitan Opera cast member Diana Damrau lies on the stage as Lucia while others perform during a dress rehearsal of Donizetti’s “Lucia di Lammermoor” in Tokyo on Monday night.

**note: no reason given as to why she is on the floor...

1. She's probably "dead."
Lucia goes mad and dies at the end of the opera.

5. Tickets for the performance cost anywhere from $300 to $800
Not exactly affordable entertainment for most of us

"Diana Damrau and New York’s Metropolitan opera perform the Donizetti opera. June 9 & 16, 6:30pm; June 12, 3pm; June 19, noon, ¥24,000-¥64,000."

4. She's not dead
She's just "pining for the fjords"

6. Pinin' for the fiords?!
Listen, mate. The only reason she was standing in the first place was that you had NAILED HER FEET TO THE FLOOR!
