Things to do in New York City, New York (NY): The Best Operas
Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

We've attended Verdi's Requiem opening and loved it. Acoustic in Family Circle is awesome, seats are pretty comfortable, and subtitles machine helped to better understand the masterpiece. Also the interior of the theater and the concert hall is very impressive and worth visiting

Went to see this in January with my Mom, she is a huge phantom of the opera fan. She loved it. It is a great show, the performances are excellent, the music is great. Classic Broadway! I highly recommend checking out this show if you are in NYC!
