hi everyone

Open Day, the Opera Centre, July 23, 2006
In July 2006 the Opera Centre at Surry Hills in Sydney throws open its doors to all. It's all FREE and there will be tours, exhibitions, memorabilia, performances and an ABC CLASSIC FM live broadcast. Everyone is invited to take a tour, enjoy a performance and meet artists past and present.

not sure what their stance is on photography, but there will be lots of photo opps

i'm covering the event for press, so see you there

At the risk of sounding even dumber - what and where is the Opera Centre? Is this something a classical music fan should know...? :shock:

Cheers
