Reports
Marie-Antoinette attended the performance of "Manon" at the Wiener Staatsoper. She reported that Anna and Roberto brought down the Wiener Staatsoper getting a never ending ovation. Anna was in an extremely good mood at the stage door. Marie-Antoinette told us that this time Anna got a lot of flowers trying to catch them. The audience was very thankfull and gave her a fantastic farewell.
