Old Opera House Reviews

Surprisingly quality show for a small local theatre.

Lovely experience. Helpful staff. Very clean. What more could you want?

Very good, engrossing plays and musicals, even though amateur talent. Worth the price.

I recently joined the youth choir here, and it's wonderful. I'm glad I finally have a real choir teacher. The staff is very sweet.

Always such great talent and amazing performances. Such a tremendous asset to our community. My memories go back 40 years, from taking ballet to attending my first play in 1981, just 9 years old.

The original opera house in Frankfurt is now the Alte Oper (Old Opera), a concert hall and former opera house in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It was inaugurated in 1880 but destroyed by bombs in 1944. It was rebuilt, slowly, in the 1970s, opening again in 1981. Many important operas were performed for the first time in Frankfurt, including Carl Orff's Carmina Burana in 1937.

The square in front of the building is known as Opernplatz (Opera Square). The Alte Oper is located in the inner city district, Innenstadt, within the banking district Bankenviertel.



The citizens of Frankfurt, who had to finance the structure (initial estimate two million marks), were rather sceptical at first.[citation needed] Alluding to the inscription on the frieze

The play was incredible. Local actors are great and we loved "James and the giant peach" If you have a chance catch a play.

Tired ole building with the most extraordinary hidden gems

Great community theatre! Friendly staff and excellent original plays.

This place was featured on Ghosts of Shepherdstown last week and claims to be haunted how ridiculous!

This place has a lot of history. Very unique place. Takes you back in time for sure. Performance was well done.

Play - Annie - was fine, but seating and acoustics not so much. Definitely lives up to its name. Rest rooms limited, just 3 toilets in women's rest room. Stage visibility limited due to nearly flat floor...

I very much enjoyed the show me and my gf went to see at christmas time, it was "its a wonderful life". Great production and cast, enjoyed it very much.

Great place to experience community theater at it's best. I had a great time!!
