[Calibax]

Is there a theme?

[angie55]

You missed the closing date again, 10 April 2021.

[elliemay1]

Are these 2 qns?
If son, 2nd one =Oklahoma

[elliemay1]

^ If so!

[Calibax]

How do you get Oklahoma, elliemay?

[elliemay1]

Bizet's opera is Carmen which is in Oklahoma. Answer may be wrong!
I think the theme of this quiz is States in America.

[JJ109]

Another answer was Ginger Rogers, so I think the theme is just anything American

[Calibax]

Thanks. Carmen, Oklahoma (pop. 355) seems a bit obscure though.

[JJ109]

I am trying to make Walt Whitman fit, but can't!

Walt(Z) + W(hite) H(ouse) ...but "itman" ???

[elliemay1]

My answer is wrong as I see that it is a 2 word answer!

[elliemay1]

jj, the first one has only one word

[JJ109]

Thanks Ellie, I read it as just the one clue also

Bizet wrote the Pearl Fishers also but Sri Lanka is nothing to do with America!

[Chinajan]

Oklahoma isn't on the Pacific either.

Carmen was set in Seville - there are several Sevilles in the USA but none even vaguely Pacific.

Just 'Walt' might be acceptable as the answer for the first one?

[Toorak]

Pearl Harbour?

[Jackdaw33]

Sri Lanka was originally called Ceylon. There are a few Ceylons in the US but none that I can see on the Pacific coast.

[brainiac]

Anything to do with Bizet's opera The Pearl Fishers? It's set in Ceylon

[elliemay1]

It's a 2 word answer

[Jackdaw33]

I'm liking Pearl Harbour - Hawaii in the Pacific.
