Other things to remember when attending the opera
- Opera is not amplified, meaning the orchestra and singers are not using microphones. If the lights are down, please stop talking, so others around you may hear every note.
- No food or drinks are allowed into the performance hall for Mainstage opera performances.
- Please silence all electronic devices.
- Recording and photography are prohibited.
How do I know if the opera is suitable for children?
To help you determine which opera to take your family to, we post a rating (similar to the movies) on the website performance pages. If you need more information, please contact Patron Services at 214.443.1000.
What should I wear to the opera?
Wear whatever makes you comfortable. We do not have a formal dress code and suggest that you dress for the experience you want to have at the opera. If you are enjoying a family outing on a weekend afternoon, casual and comfortable attire works for many, while some may like the opportunity to dress up.
What can I expect at intermission?
Mainstage opera intermissions are twenty minutes long unless the program indicates otherwise. Stretch your legs, relax and enjoy a drink with your friends, or take a restroom break. Chimes will let you know that the intermission is ending and it’s time to silence your devices and return to your seat. Once the doors are closed, late seating will be at the discretion of the house manager.
