About the Royal Opera House
The Royal Opera House stands in Covent Garden, central London, and is often known simply as Covent Garden. The Royal Ballet, The Royal Opera and an orchestra of its own are based there. The first playhouse on the site, the Theatre Royal, opened on December 7, 1732 to a design by Edward Shepherd, and for its first hundred years it worked mainly as a stage for plays.
A ballet was staged for the first time in 1734, and the first season of Handel operas began a year later. George Frideric Handel wrote many of his operas and oratorios specifically for Covent Garden, where they premiered. Fires in 1808 and 1856 destroyed the first two buildings, and the present one is the third on the site.
The facade, foyer and auditorium date to 1858, while almost all else in the complex comes from a far-reaching rebuilding in the 1990s. The main auditorium holds 2,256 people, the third largest in London, arranged in four tiers of boxes and balconies plus the amphitheatre gallery. Its proscenium measures 14.80 meters (48 ft 7 in) across. The main auditorium has Grade I listed status.
