An Online Easter

A digital Easter…
.
Susan: How was Easter for you this year?
.
Maria: Well, we elderly and vulnerable were not supposed to go out.
.
Susan: You missed church?
.
Maria: Saw some great entertainment online instead. Jesus Christ Superstar.
.
Susan: Andrew Lloyd Webber?
.
Maria: Stunning cast. Superb cinematography. Only accessible for 48 hours. But then today guess who sang in the Milano Duomo? With no audience?
.
Susan: Andrea Bocelli?
.
Maria: A little older, a little thinner, but still he's Bocelli. Intercuts of empty streets of Milano, Paris, London and NY echoing him singing in the deserted duomo; nice production!
