Opera Australia Costume Clearance

The Opera Centre in Surry Hills will open its doors over two days in mid-April for a costume clearance sale. Stock from retired productions will be available for purchase with prices starting at the jaw-droppingly low fifty cents.

In an effort to make room to store new creations, more than 2000 pieces, crafted with hundreds of thousands of hours of hand stitching and painstaking attention to detail, will be on offer.

Items will be on offer from productions of operas including Boris Godunov, Carmen, Don Carlos, Iolanthe, Orpheus in the Underworld, and The Pearl Fishers among many more. Dress-up dreams can come true amid the array of fantasy costumes, men’s and women’s period clothing, traditional dress, period hats, armour, and theatrical fabrics and trims.

This is a free event and entry will be permitted on a first in, best dressed basis until the venue reaches capacity.
