Coming to a venue near you

Posted 23 Jun 2012

For thie forthcoming season of twelve live HD transmissions from the Metropolitan Opera, New York, opera fans in Scotland have seven cinemas to choose between - all equipped with state-of-the-art sound and vision.  The Met season has now become a fixture and at present outdoes competition from the more recent offerings from the Royal Opera, Glyndebourne and others.  The seats sold clearly account for a significant part of the opera market in Scotland.   Subscription packages are available, and offer great value. Sometimes the cinemas offer extras, such as a pre-performance talk.  The performances for 2012-13 can now be seen in our listings.  Be sure to check details with the venues - click through to their own websites.  The cinemas are:- Aberdeen Belmont Picturehouse, Dundee DCA, Edinburgh Cameo Picturehouse, Glasgow Cineworld Renfrew Street, along with Perth Playhouse, the Pavilion Galashiels and Falkirk Cineworld.
