28th and 30th - "The Mikado"
29th - "Der Rosenkavalier"

Both presented by Opera Australia, at that funny looking building on the Harbour. More info here

Alas, you'll be too late for Pacific Opera's "Hansel & Gretel" at the SBW Independent Theatre in North Sydney (September into early October), and too early for Pinchgut Opera's "L'Orfeo" at the Angel Place City Recital Hall (December).

Bell Shakespeare's "12th Night", at the Opera House. Not exactly a musical, but it's got four or five songs in it, with Shakespeare's words set to music by, in this production, James Reyne.

Not a musical either, but promises to be great fun nonetheless - Moliere's "The Miser" starring John Gaden, at STC, also at that funny looking meringue-shaped knob near the bridge.

Also, "Kimberly Akimbo" at the Ensemble Theatre, Kirribilli; "The Marriage of Figaro" (Mozart's opera) at the Opera House (on the 6th only); and various assorted plays at Belvoir Street, Griffin, and elsewhere.

There's always something on. Try the internet.

Oh wait...
