What to Expect

- 2.Get there early to snag parking, breeze through security, and find your seat before the lights go down.
- 3.Plan for about 2.5 to 3 hours including intermission, so set aside a full evening and use the break to stretch your legs.
- 4.The Detroit Opera House is a seated venue with an emphasis on sightlines; picking seats near the center orchestra or mid balcony will give you the best view of the staging.
- 5.If you're bringing kids, prep them for the performance, avoid recording with phones, and keep devices silenced so others aren’t distracted.
