Free opera!
Two dates for cash-strapped opera lovers – the BP Big Screens will be showing two operas from the Royal Opera House in July.
We kick off with Verdi’s Don Carlos on the 3rd of July, at 6pm. There will be big screens in Trafalgar Square and at Canada Square Park in Docklands.
Then Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro will be broadcast on 16 July, with screens in Trafalgar Square, Canada Square Park in Docklands, Lakeside shopping centre and Chertsey Road, Sunbury. The showing starts at 7pm.
Okay, it’s not the same intense experience as seeing the opera in the house. But it does have its advantages – you can take refreshments along, and even have a glass of champagne while you watch!
