Countryhouse opera is opera performed at a countryhouse , whether in the house itself, in the grounds, or in an adapted or purpose built theatre in the grounds. It is a feature in particular of the England English summer. Countryhouse opera is usually initiated by private enthusiasts, and relies on private funding. This distinguishes it from the UK s state subsidised opera companies which, like most opera houses around the world, are based in city centres. Black tie is often de rigueur, in contrast with Royal Opera House Covent Garden and other city operas where casual clothing is often acceptable. The performances of countryhouse opera are generally planned to provide a leisurely and elegant experience, with time for picnics on the lawns or a full meal in the interval, and often start in the late afternoon. The English have always liked picnicking in the summer and if you can throw in a bit of entertainment, then that s even better said a former manager at the Sydney Opera House, attributing the popularity of countryhouse opera in England to the wonderful adventurous spirit of the British....
