Ballet and Opera at Gaillac

While I know there is no real competition to the wonderful Opera season at Mas del Sol, for those of us who are nearer to Gailac may find the relays at Imagin Cinema easier to get to. There is both the Metropolitan Opera and the Bolshoi Ballet being streamed about once a month.

Metropolitan Opera

5 October    Eugene Oneguine
9 November Tosca
5 December The Nose
5 January     Falstaff
2 February    Rusalka
1 March        Prince Igor
15 March      Werther
5 April           La Boheme
26 April         Cosi Fan Tutte
10 May         Cinderella

Most operas start at 17.55 but some are at other times. Irespective of the announced running time it seems that they rarely finish before midnight.       

Bolshoi Ballet

20 October       Spatacus
17 November     Le Corsaire
22 December    Sleeping Beauty
17 January        Joy
2   February      Lost Illusions
30 March          The Golden Age

All performances start at 17.00.

Prices are €24 for a single performance and €100 for 5
 
Unlike Mas del Sol with its apero dinatoire included in the price, Pizzas can be bought from the adjacent Parlour who serve meals before by appointment, during the interval by reservation or afterwards for those with real stamina
