The Merry Widow at the Sydney Opera House

A trip to Sydney isn't complete without a visit to its most famous building, and the best thing to do when you visit the Sydney Opera House is to come inside and see an opera performance.

Sway, smile and swoon your way through this delicious production of The Merry Widow. It's an opulent party, all glitz and glamour and Parisian charm. It's an old-fashioned romance, flirty and funny and fabulous. It's a Viennese waltz, and you know all the steps.

The Merry Widow is a "shimmering all-singing, all-dancing Broadway-style show" (The Sydney Morning Herald), a frothy comedy packed with familiar waltzes and tuneful melodies. From the sumptuous Art Deco era costumes to the glamorous, geometric sets, the show is "visually stunning …sometimes you simply don't know where to look" (The Sydney Morning Herald).
