WNO: Play Opera LIVE

The perfect family show for the young and young at heart

Featuring magnificent music from stage and screen, this interactive and educational family show is the perfect introduction to the wonderful world of opera and classical music.

Bought to life by the acclaimed WNO Orchestra, our presenter Tom Redmond will introduce you to the Orchestra and its many instruments, our talented performers, and of course, the music you’ll be hearing during the afternoon – some of which are our absolutely favourites to perform. The relaxed setting of the show will allow you to fully lose yourself in the music and the drama – we’ll have you clapping, singing, and dancing in your seats.

Delve into the backstage magic of opera during our free pre-show foyer activities, available from 1pm. Explore some of our costumes, make props and enjoy our lighting and sound stations. If that’s not enough, there’s even a treasure hunt.
