Opera performs in the War Memorial Opera House from may till Dec and the ballet fills in around those dates. Classical music is a regular part of my working life and our Live Orchestra is amazing. I did work rock and roll for many years also . Rigging light and sound systems and spot light operator durning performances.
Have had several ballets where I had to sit in the pit during the performance , pretty magical experience.


Never take life to seriously, after all ,no one gets out of it alive.
