Beijing Opera (京剧; pinyin: Jīngjù) is a form of traditional Chinese theatre which combines music, vocal performance, mime, dance, and acrobatics. It arose in the late 18th century and became fully developed and recognized by the mid-19th century.
The form was extremely popular in the Qing dynasty court and has come to be regarded as one of the cultural treasures of China.

Sydney Opera House (1957 - 1973) is a masterpiece of late modern architecture. It is admired internationally and proudly treasured by the people of Australia.
It was created by a young architect who understood and recognised the potential provided by the site against the stunning backdrop of Sydney Harbour.
Denmark’s Jørn Utzon gave Australia a challenging, graceful piece of urban sculpture in patterned tiles, glistening in the sunlight and invitingly aglow at night.
Jorn Utzon died in Copenhagen in November 2008 aged 90.

The Oslo Opera House (Norwegian: Operahuset) is the home of The Norwegian National Opera and Ballet, and the national opera theatre in Norway. The building is situated in the Bjørvika neighborhood of central Oslo, at the head of the Oslofjord. It is operated by Statsbygg, the government agency which manages property for the Norwegian government. The structure contains 1,100 rooms in a total area of 38,500 m2 (414,000 sq ft). The main auditorium seats 1,364 and two other performance spaces can seat 200 and 400. The main stage is 16 m (52 ft) wide and 40 m (130 ft) deep.The angled exterior surfaces of the building are covered with Italian marble and white granite and make it appear to rise from the water. It is the largest cultural building constructed in Norway since Nidarosdomen was completed circa 1300.
The Opera House of Guadalajara, formally known as The Degollado Theater, belongs to the neoclassical style of architecture. Construction was begun by Jacob Galvez in 1856 and completed in 1866.

I was fortunate enough to meet up with a friend of mine; Iain, whom I had met in Cairo a few years ago. He lives in Sydney, and when I visited, we went on a photo shoot around the Opera House.
Dear friends, thanks for your visit and support. It is appreciated! :)
A few months ago now I was really in the mood to go out and shoot so I decided to head to Circular and capture this image of the Sydney Opera House. The weather wasn't ideal that day but it still made for a decent blue hour image.

Salle de spectacle / The Auditorium. Charles Garnier built the auditorium in the tradition of an Italian theatre. Shaped like a horseshoe, the stalls are overlooked by several tiers of boxes and balconies allowing as much to see as be seen.
The ceiling by Marc Chagall was inaugurated in 1964 and affixed over the former one by Jules Eugène Lenepveu. Chagall completed the pantheon of opera composers whilst paying tribute to Garnier, with whom he shared a taste for shimmering colours
