Michael, for all his fans and for most of the public at large, is the centerpiece of the tour, so last week he took center stage at a brief press conference in Kansas City. Dressed in spangled glove, dark shades, sequined band jacket and one of the red ceremonial sashes that make him look like a cultural ambassador from Sesame Street, he announced in a voice frayed by nerves that he had seen Ladonna Jones' letter.

The second scene takes place in a Little Italy tenement where Rigoletto has secreted his daughter, Gilda, and where she is wooed by the Duke, who sports a high school warmup jacket. The finale is set in a seedy, Hopperesque waterfront dive. When the Duke sings his famous La donna e mobile aria, in English, he first pops a coin in a jukebox that stands beneath a poster for From Here to Eternity...
