Supertitles or surtitles are English translations of what is being sung projected above the stage, and are always featured at all Atlanta Opera productions. I have to dress up. Many years ago opera was just for the elite class and royalty, and thus patrons felt it necessary to dress to the nines when attending opera. Nowadays, opera is open to everyone and there is no dress code. People come to the opera dressed in everything from jeans to evening gowns, so please feel free to attend the opera in whatever clothes you feel comfortable.
All opera singers are fat, screaming ladies in horned helmets.
Opera is expensive. These and many other special offers make opera more affordable than ever before. Opera is one of the fastest growing of the performing arts with more than 20 million people attending annually. Opera is boring. In our very visually oriented society today, we look for and even expect entertainment that dazzles us from all around.
