The preformance of Rigoletto was by all measures amazing. Everything from the sound design to the opera singers felt powerful and tragic, like the story itself. The stage design was particularly incredible. They took a piece originally set in the 16th century and made it modern without turning it trite - in fact they made it lore alive. Each scene fit perfectly for its meaning, telling a story on its own, even before the first note sounded.

Opera at the Sydney Opera House! What can I say? The premier of Rigoletto was an unforgettable experience! The flawless performance and spectacular sets made for a night to remember especially for my daughter's first visit to this iconic venue. Highlight of the evening was the audience singing Happy Birthday at the end to mark the company's 70'th birthday! Bravo to all!

The performances were outstanding. The soprano who played Gilda was goosebumps incredible. What a star. The orchestra was superb as were Rigoletto and the Duke. The setting was a masterpiece. Pure genius. And of course the wonderful opera house. What an extraordinary building.
