Most recently we went to La Donna del Lago which featured some really great performances, making for a most enjoyable evening. Staging as always at the ROH was brilliant but of course never gets a bow, so I always feel that those involved in the design, creation and operation require an especial mention. Sadly, and uniquely for us, as the... More

As a former ballet costume designer, I was in high anticipation for our Royal Opera House backstage tour. A group of 18 of us gathered near the box office and set off on our 1 1/2 hour odyssey. You cannot be guaranteed access to any particular facet of the House because of the daily schedule changes, but you will get... More

Still to see a show here but everything that is on offer is always very good. I have been to a few London Fashion Week shows here and the building is very beautiful indeed.

Be sure to visit the second floor balcony for a nice view of the Coventry garden market building and the wardroom shop.

checked the website and booked 2 free tickets for the free concert at lunch time on Apr 29th. it was in the crush room, not the main auditorium but we enjoyed it nevertheless

Visited as a birthday present for my wife, from the children. Excellent organisation and signposting. What a superb auditorium. Our seats were comfortable, with a great view, in circle left. The ballet la Bayadere was lovely, with some excellent dancing. Bit of a food policeman on the door to ensure nothing eaten in the seating area! A great experience.

Was OK but not the best performance of Phantom that I have seen. The performer playing the Phantom was weak. However, the other primary characters were very good.
