  • — What You Can Expect —

Sway, smile and swoon your way through Opera Australia's delicious production of The Merry Widow — a frothy Viennese comedy full of glitz, glamour, and Parisian charm playing at the world-famous Sydney Opera House from 8 July to 18 August 2026.

The story follows Hanna, a fabulously wealthy widow whose hand in marriage holds the fate of an entire nation. When her country needs her fortune to stay home, a charming but reluctant suitor is sent to win her heart — and what follows is a romantic comedy of mistaken intentions, flirtatious intrigue, and irresistible waltzes.

From the sumptuous Art Deco costumes to the glamorous geometric sets, the production is "visually stunning… sometimes you simply don't know where to look" (The Sydney Morning Herald). With electrifying choreography by legendary director Graeme Murphy AO and star performances by acclaimed sopranos Emma Pearson and Julie Lea Goodwin, this is an unforgettable night of romance, laughter, and music. See it if you like: champagne and frivolity, Midnight in Paris, glamorous Art Deco productions.
