I was just wondering something about Betsy Wolfe's role in Die Fledermaus at The Met. Does she have a singing role, or is she, like Danny Burstien, strictly acting? Just curious as I have yet to get a chance to see it and I don't recall her ever being an opera singer.

The part is billed as a soprano role.

She has approximately half a line sung solo. But she sings in the ensemble throughout the second and third acts, as opposed to Burnstein's character who doesn't sing at all

Burstein.

No "n."

And it's "ei" not "ie."
