Nicole Car makes her role debut as Dvořák's Rusalka in a production by Sarah Giles that proves a winner. 

Emotions on stage are matched by those rising from the pit as Sarah Giles' popular production returns to Sydney. 

Sarah Giles' new production replaces Elijah Moshinsky's venerable staging, and the talented cast delivers a successful performance. 

Gorgeous sets and costumes aren't quite enough to make this La traviata revival sparkle.

The quality cast purred, but glorious roars are required to jolt audiences from placid enjoyment of Opera Australia’s gorgeous 24-year-old production of this Verdi classic.

Julie Taymor's production maintains the magic of The Magic Flute at Sydney Opera House.
