Performance of Offenbach's 'La belle Helene' by the orchestra, choir and ballet of the Kraków Opera. Kraków, Poland

The Opéra Garnier is one of the Paris National Opera's two home venues in the city. It was built from 1861 to 1875 on a commission of Napoleon III, along with the Place de l'Opéra on which the building stands, at the intersection of Boulevard des Capucines and Avenue de l'Opéra. Inaugurated as "le Nouvel opéra de Paris" (the New Paris Opera), the venue became known as the "Palais Garnier" within the first decades of its existence, acknowleding the plans and designs of its architect Charles Garnier. The Paris National Opera now uses the Palais Garnier mainly for ballet. The Palais Garnier also houses the Bibliothèque-Musée de l'Opéra de Paris (Paris Opera Library-Museum), although the Library-Museum is no longer managed by the Opera and is part of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France.
Acrobatic opera performances in Chengdu, Sichuan China. The guy "wielding" the huge flag would swing and whirl it while the other guy does somersaults and stuff over the flag!!
Lyon Opera House, France
Completely rebuilt in 1993 within the exterior facade of the 18th century historic building
Architect : Jean Nouvel
1300 seats
Note the seriously overhanged seats at the rear of the balconies. Certainly the only solution to fit 1300 seats in such a small an intimate space. For those seating at the rear (under the overhangs), the feeling is not that intimate though...

This photo of the early Mancos Opera House, Drug Store and Meat Market is courtesy of the Historic Society. After a recent VFW car show, held in conjunction with the annual Balloon Fest, 1925 Dodge Brothers auto owner Leo Hernandez, was able to reproduce the photo with his car in place of the one shown here...differences were the building first story facade,changes in the George Bauer Block to the east after the theater burned and Bank bldg, shown along Main Street which no longer exists.
