I did not give a thought about double-checking the time of the performance until I read a mail from a reader (many thanks Attila) who pointed out that if the broadcast is live and it starts at 1:00 PM in New York (fact, check here), and the time difference between New York and Cairo is 6 hours (fact, check here), then the performance in the Small Hall of Cairo Opera House shall start at 7:00 and not 8:00 PM as stated.
All of us might have possibly got it wrong, or maybe the broadcast is not going to be exactly "live" after all, but if I were to attend the performance (that sadly I can't) I would probably go there one hour earlier. Better wait than losing the first hour of the performance (if Wagner wrote such long operas there must be a reason!).
PS: You might also try to check with the COH at 02 27390144.
Update 2: I received in the meantime confirmation from COH that it is indeed going to start at 7:00!
