Opera is Coming!
Opera has been the most popular of the performing arts in the West—even more so than the movies—since it was invented 400 years ago. Closer to home, opera has been the most popular topic for seniors at SFU’s downtown campus for years.
Some people ask, is opera for me? Isn't it for people dressed up in tails and gowns? In this talk, we will explore how you can leave the tails and gowns and enjoy opera in a movie theatre in the suburbs or from your couch at home.
