A chance to view a full range of operas, (including those not normally available locally) from the best opera houses around the world.

Please arrive by 1.00pm so that we can have a prompt start. If you arrive late, you are still welcome but we will have started. So please sort yourselves out quietly.

The prompt and early start allows us to show full performance of the longer operas. These are shown on the large-screen with a great picture and sound.

All are Welcome. If you are not already a member of the group, come along anyway to see and hear what you are missing.
