Oh! and we see some opera singers backstage.

Apparently it's a long held belief/tradition for the singers to drink
(in this case cheap bloodwine) before a performance. They claimed
(despite the medical inconsistencies) that it helped lubricate the
throat and improve their singing ability. Some of them got quite
drunk.

Hence, thirsty as a singer.

Modern playwrights have become obsessed with writing human
interpretations of alien theatrical works while ignoring completely
our own unique cultural heritage.~Bashir; "The Die is Cast" (DS9)
