My husband is the opera fan. We went to a solo performance. It was okay for me; prefer a full opera if I'm going to go. We were first in a box with some *very* ripe Italians. We were actually sitting behind them in the box, which wasn't terrible because we were on the side of the stage, but limited views of the theater. The odor was overwhelming though. Asked to be moved and got a good seat in the floor. It's a beautiful venue and you should at least do the museum and the tour if you can't go to a performance. The museum was excellent.
