I haven't been to that many operas, however I saw Tosca a while ago. They began and ended each act with a screen instead of the main curtain. It had written on it which act it was and the name of the house and of the opera. I have not been able too find any info about what it is or what it is called. Google found a picture for me: http://www.rudyalvarado.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111201-063600.jpg
Apparently the many in the design team were italian. So what is it? Is it traditional for Italian opera? Or is it that I am uneducated and have seen way too few operas and it is that is the usual way it is done on operas?
Does it have any special meaning or representation?
