On a beautiful spring day the glistening roof of the opera house was so beautiful.The tour is interesting with surprising facts about the construction,problems and the architect quitting mid construction.Beautiful theaters and well organized walks throughout the building.

I have seen a good number of opera performances in various countries and venues. I do not know of any operas composed for just one instrument. This turned out to be a sad misrepresentation of everything an opera stands for. Waste of time and money in my opinion. A very unfortunate idea of putting together a performance consisting of a single musical instrument (piano), four singers in formal attire and a host trying to make it funny. Giving it a name of "Great Opera Hits" was certainly a great marketing tool for drawing opera loving audience at $69 a piece.

The opera performance was amazing! The pre-opera dinner on the water front of the opera house was to die for. The dinner was on the foyer of the Joan Sutherland Theatre - 3 course and lovely ambience. The foyer is not opened for other patrons until very close to show time so the strip that was looking to the water was truly magnificent and quiet. Lovely to go an a date nite and get pampered. Show was captivating and such great singers. The combination of Dinner and Opera is just such a treat!!!

We had great seats booked through Viator and enjoyed the performance tremendously. Not only the beautiful arias, but mixed in were some fun segments, e.g. the suggestive hand movements of the tenor on the sideline, when the voluptuous Carmen was on stage or the audience singing an aria with la-la-la-la-la and afterwards being told, that now we can proclaim to have sung at the Sydney Opera House!
