The Opera House is a building dedicated to just that - the presentation of operatic productions on a grand scale. Not terribly popular with the masses because of the format, nevertheless all the dramas and passions of life are writ large upon the stage.
The manager is a genial human in late middle age, one Jofric Merbolam. He is tall for a human, round and florid. He has a booming voice, and in his youth performed many times upon the stage here.

(It is here that Dorlan comes every year to arrange for the staging of the Chantery's opera.
This year they had chosen a light comedy piece based around a strange land where honour and saving face were all important.
It was to be called "The Mikado.")

*Looks up at the signs*
The Mikado? Don't know that one, sounds interesting.
*Hums, looks at the tickes*
Hm... I'm sure they won't notice.
*Drags him to the royal seats on the balcony.*

The production is a flamboyant one. Lots of men in strange robe-like attire, all the players in white facepain, sining strange songs.
Then the first main song - three girls, two human and an Elf, singing "Three little maids from school are we".

[Setzer walks in moments after them and buys a ticket for himself. He never misses a show here.
He blinks when he sees the two of them move to the royal seats and grins. Looks like Dragon found himself a very pretty young girl. Good for him.
He sits in his usual seat and waves to Dragon while waiting for the show, happy when it starts.]
