Visited the Sydney Opera House and enjoyed a performance of the greatest operatic hits. Throughly enjoyable evening and a top quality performance.

Loved watching Sunset Boulevard at JoanSutherland! We arrived a little late but all the staff were very friendly and helpful

It was an excellent night, fun and a great cultural outing. It is always special feeling to be inside the Opera House and more so the Joan Sutherland Hall.

Opera Australia - Cosi fan tutte . It is always a special night going to the Opera House with beautiful Harbour views and so many value eating options. The experience is taken to the next level with any Opera Australia performance, but especially the fun of Mozart's greatest operas. 3 hours of intrigue and deception never fully resolved. You won't nod off during this one! Bubbles at Interval? Or there are a number of water stations with disposable cups - a really pleasant options at any theatre that offers it. Enjoy the ambience and the performance - both top quality.

We flew to Sydney to see this Opera. What a fabulous production with amazing set design, conductor, orchestra and cast. We enjoyed every moment of the performance. An excellent new production. What a fabulous evening in the Joan Sutherland Theatre where the audience obviously enjoyed the evening as much as we did. It encapsulated beautiful music, a humorous plot and brilliant voices. Sorry there are no photos as it wasn’t permitted during the performance.

The singers were let down by the conductor. It was heavy-handed, the tempi felt slow, and there was no humour in the orchestral play when it was called for.

My first opera and this was a real special one! Had plenty moments of 'wow this is intense'. Good performances by orchestra and artists. Karah Son playing Tosca was incredible. Young Woo Kim and Gevorg Hakobyan also played their roles very well!

Beautiful evening to watch the Opera Tosca, this is such an iconic building and is worth a visit , this was topped off with an excellent performance of Tosca . The acoustics within the hall are superb and the performance was excellent.

Amazing to see a performance at this architectural treasure, and to explore the building a bit beforehand and to see the beautiful Harbour view from the balcony. The production of Kean’s modern opera Hamlet was excellent (though we are not huge modern opera fans). We saw it on the smaller stage, which is apparently not as grand as the main stage. My one criticism is that it would be helpful to know the name of the show you are getting through Trip Advisor/Viator when you purchase your tickets. If we had a choice, we would likely have chosen an orchestra performance in the main hall rather than a modern opera on the smaller stage. That said, it was an experience we will not forget.

Very enjoyable triple-bill of short Puccini operas. The performers did a very good job, and the opera orchestra was wonderful as always. Dinner at Bennelong prior to the show was stunning. Highly recommend.

It has been a long- held ambition to see an opera at the Sydney Opera House and the performance of Tosca lived up to the anticipation. The auditorium is amazing and the scenery was breath-taking. Every aspect of the performance was of the highest standard. The help in getting my wife, who has difficulty walking, to a taxi after the show was the icing on the cake

It is highly unusual that when you book through TripAdvisor you cannot see the location of your seats. You only get a qualitative rating such as great location or something similar. Performance of Tosca was ok. Superb performance by the Korean singer Young Woo Kim in the role of Cavaradossi.

Lack luster, small-scale production of Tosca, significantly below the level in repertory in other opera houses around the world. The acting is good, the staging is rather gimmicky but the principal problem is that two-thirds of the orchestra is beneath the stage, which mutes the acoustics. That is fine for a musical where amplification is in the mix, but for an opera (where nothing is mic'd) it makes the orchestra seems very quiet, which doesn't suit a surging melodrama like Tosca. Please, please take out the first couple of rows of seats, bring the orchestra forward, and let the sound fill the house.

This is probably Sydney’s best kept secret and it’s perfect for residents and tourists alike. Just a quick rundown of how the gala works: A number of upbeat favourites are performed, some purely symphony and others featuring very talented singers. The gala is in two parts with one long intermission. This is designed for the attendees to see the “family fireworks” at 9:30. Everyone returns to a very enthusiastic performance that I guarantee you will never see performed at the Opera House any other time of the year. Short of midnight, the performance concludes and people are let out onto the raised area outside the Opera House blocked off to the general public with one of the best views of the fireworks; and at midnight, the fireworks in all their glory, ring in the new year.

Don't waste your money and your life..hours. YOLO. Time is precious. Don't waste it on this. Sound was terrible and could hear echo/lag from the speakers on the other side of stage. Also sound was over loud and washed out the lyrics. Might have just been this show, on my visit. Venue pizzas - average. Price $22-25
