Robert Lyall is General and Artistic Director for the New Orleans Opera Association. Robert describes Hurricane Katrina's extensive damage to the opera's traditional venue, The Theatre of Performing Arts located in Armstrong Park. Despite the challenges Katrina brought, the New Orleans opera returned to the arts' scene in March, 2006 with a grand gala. The event was so successful that Robert planned a New Year's Eve celebration; he promises this event will be the perfect way for music and art lovers to welcome the new year, 2008.
