The Vienna State Opera (Wiener Staatsoper) is an opera house – and opera company – with a history dating back to the mid-19th century. It is located in the centre of Vienna, Austria. It was originally called the Vienna Court Opera (Wiener Hofoper); in 1920, it was renamed the Vienna State Opera. The members of the Vienna Philharmonic are recruited from its orchestra.
The building was the first major building on the Vienna Ringstraße commissioned by the controversial Viennese "city expansion fund". Work commenced on the building in 1861 and was completed in 1869, following plans drawn up by architects August Sicard von Sicardsburg and Eduard van der Nüll, who lived together in the 6. Bezirk. It was built in the Neo-Renaissance style.
The Ministry of the Interior had commissioned a number of reports into the availability of certain building materials, with the result that stones long not seen in Vienna were used, such as Wöllersdorfer Stein, for plinths and free-standing, simply-divided buttresses, the famously hard stone from Kaisersteinbruch, whose colour was more appropriate than that of Kelheimerstein, for more lushly decorated parts. The somewhat coarser-grained Kelheimerstein (also known as Solnhof Plattenstein) was intended as the main stone to be used in the building of the opera house, but the necessary quantity was not deliverable. Breitenbrunner stone was suggested as a substitute for the Kelheimer stone, and stone from Jois was used as a cheaper alternative to the Kaiserstein. The staircases were constructed from polished Kaiserstein, while most of the rest of the interior was decorated with varieties of marble.
The decision was made to use dimension stone for the exterior of the building. Due to the monumental demand for stone, stone from Sóskút, widely used in Budapest, was also used. Three Viennese masonry companies were employed to supply enough masonry labour: Eduard Hauser (still in existence today), Anton Wasserburger and Moritz Pranter. The foundation stone was laid on May 20, 1863.

Cork Opera House is a theatre and opera house in Cork in the Republic of Ireland. It was originally built in 1855, although its existence has not been continuous; having survived the burning of much of Cork by British forces in reprisal for an ambush of a military convoy in 1920 by Irish rebels, the Opera House nevertheless was burned down in its centenary year by a combination of old wiring and wooden materials. Although Cork had until then boasted the presence of a proper theatre in some form for over 250 years, it was not until 1963 that the Opera House was rebuilt fully and opened.

We had a trip to Sydney during Omicron and found the lack of tourists made it easy to get around and enjoy the sights. Normally the steps of the Opera House would be full of tourists sitting on the steps but not today

As a member of the EDNA team I visited Buxton Opera House to take location shots for "Discover Buxton tours", a local company with a little red tour tram.
The Opera House is the first stop on their tour of the town and despite them usually only viewing the outside of the building during the tour we were able to document the inside for use on their website and tour guide.

The Opera Garnier had weathered the war, in a fashion. The building was still intact, with only blackened broken windows bearing witness to the devastation within. Inside, the great stairs, splitting in two from a central landing, were covered in rubble, the elegant lamps all smashed, and the statues half-melted by spells. The coloured marbles that had once been the pride and distinguishing feature of Garnier’s masterpiece had been denatured by spells, leeched to a sickly pale grey or broken into meaningless fragments.
Samariel had been there once, before the war—a memory of men and women in elegant clothes, the floral notes of perfume, the glitter of chandelier lights on pearl necklaces, white gloves that seemed to catch fire in the profusion of radiance; and the distant, plaintive sound of chords from within, where the orchestra was fine-tuning their instruments before the sharp, fragile brilliance of the evening started.
There was none of that left, now. Just a faint, unpleasant smell of magic gone awry, and the drier one of burnt dust. The ornate paintings on the ceiling were cracked, their mythological characters broken into incoherent, monstrous pieces.
