[edit] La Cleopatra or Cleopatra?

Oxford give the title as Cleopatra. Are they wrong? --Kleinzach 03:13, 8 June 2008 (UTC) P.S. Also why the German name: Theater der Eremitage? --Kleinzach 03:17, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

English speakers sometimes like to informally remove definite articles. ;-) Anyhow, Grove lists the work as:

La Cleopatra (dramma serio, 2, Moretti), St Petersburg, Hermitage, 27 Sept/8 Oct 1789.
