The Elixir of Love at the Sydney Opera House

A trip to Sydney wouldn't be complete without visiting its most famous landmark and the best way to experience the Sydney Opera House is from within, watching a world-class opera performance.

Nemorino is too bashful to ask the bright, beautiful Adina out, but when a handsome young soldier catches her eye, he buys some liquid courage and makes his move. After a series of hilarious mishaps, the story ends with a happy couple. But who?

Donizetti's sparkling opera is a love letter to high notes and high jinks, and Australian theatre royalty Simon Phillips leans into the laughs in this much-loved production featuring a corrugated iron set (complete with iron sheep and birds) and painterly costumes. Expect romance, laughter, and dazzling singing in this gem of an opera.

Virtuosic | Laugh-out-loud | Quirky
A must-see if you love Feel-good musicals with witty lyrics, sets and costumes that highlight the magic of theatre, distinctly Australian stories.

This opera is sung in Italian with English surtitles
