The opera house was built in 1903 to a design by Frank Matcham, who also designed the London Palladium (1910) and the London Coliseum (1904).
The Opera House ran as a successful theatre until 1927, when it was turned into a cinema. Silent films were shown until 1932 when the theatre was wired for sound and could present ‘talkies’. It also became the venue for an annual summer theatre festival. After the Second World War, it continued to serve primarily as a cinema until 1976. In 1979, it was refurbished and reopened as a venue for live performance.
In 2014, the opera house's former finance chief was jailed for two years for stealing nearly £250,000 from the opera house accounts in 2012 and 2013.

Our time in Haiphong city was mostly limited to this evening, so we made the most of it with a nightime meander (not a great time for photography but better than nothing) Being the only Europeans around surprised and amused many of the locals in equal measure, which was rather nice! :-)
