On Saturday night we went to the Vienna State Opera to see a ballet. The Wiener Staatsoper, obviously located in Vienna, Austria, opened in 1869. 
Originally it was the Vienna Court Opera but was renamed in 1920 after the end of the Habsburg Empire.
The State Opera is one of the busiest in the world. There's always something going on here. There are usually 50 - 60 operas and 10 ballets every year.
The building is absolutely beautiful. At some point I need to take one of the guided tours.
Saturday's programme was dedicated to British choreography. There were three different performances by choreographers Kenneth MacMillan, Wayne McGregor, and Frederick Ashton.
The show was great! Here's the programme trailer that I found out on YouTube.
