Sword for hire

I got up way too early this morning to get to Oxford's beautiful Sheldonian Theatre for 10AM, carrying the lovely weapons
wyte_phantom was kind enough to lend to this week's production of Don Giovanni.
I ended up having to choreograph the fight myself, which I'd more or less expected. Luckily it's short-- only three exchanges and the Commendatore gets stabbed. The music tells you pretty clearly what to do.
What I didn't expect was that the baritone singing Giovanni is a non-English-speaker, so I had to do all the staging in Italian.
Cazzo diavolo.
