点评:We went to see Madama Butterfly at the Fleet Steps overlooking the harbour. We were fortunate the weather was dry, so got there early and had a snack and drink watching the sunset with a view of the Opera House & Harbour Bridge.
We are not opera buffs, so the opera itself was nothing special for us, although the cast were very good. There are subtitles in English at the base of the stage. The overall experience of watching outdoor with the backdrop of the harbour, the amazing sets and the fireworks, was unique and special.
We had seats in row C, very near the stage, but a bit low to see the harbour backdrop and the rising moon and sun, so I’d suggest seats higher up to get the best views.
We thought getting away at the end would be difficult, but managed to get a taxi after waiting for 5 minutes in the queue, which moved quickly.
翻译:我们在俯瞰海港的舰队台阶上去看了蝴蝶夫人。我们很幸运,天气干燥,所以早早到达那里,边吃边喝边喝,一边欣赏歌剧院和海港大桥的日落。
我们不是歌剧迷,所以歌剧本身对我们来说没什么特别的,尽管演员阵容非常好。舞台底部有英文字幕。在海港、令人惊叹的布景和烟花的背景下,在户外观看的整体体验是独一无二的。
我们的座位在 C 排,离舞台很近,但有点低,无法看到海港背景和日出的月亮,所以我建议座位高一点以获得最佳视野。
我们认为最后离开会很困难,但在队列中等了 5 分钟后设法叫到了一辆出租车,出租车移动得很快。
