Rene Pape as Méphistophélès in the Royal Opera House's Faust (photo Catherine Ashmore/Royal Opera House).
daddy I want a harpsichord
Just saw the first night (afternoon?): Pape looked much better in the frock than Bryn. Sang better too. Best evil laugh ever!

Absolutely priceless. I hope the Met can match this outfit in the production Pape will feature in in their new HD season.

You've already seen Mephisto's outfit at the Met if you went to the ENO Faust last season. It's a co-production.....
