California-born mezzo Irene Dalis also brought down the house with her fiery, vocally rich presentation of Amneris although she had missed the dress rehersal because ot a sore throat. Even social ring master Elsa Maxwell rose to the occasion from her sickbed and attended in a wheel chair pushed by an oil-rich Texan, Sam LeTulle.
