St. Paul’s Within the Walls - La Traviata is a three-act opera composed by Giuseppe Verdi on an Italian libretto by Francesco Maria Piave. It was first performed on March 6th, 1853 at La Fenice opera house in Venice.

La Traviata - The performance was wonderful. We brought the whole family. I was explaining what was going on to my son and some people in front of us were upset and rude about it. But overall it was a great experience. Beautiful church. If you’re going, I recommend getting there early and getting your seat.

Enchanting night at the opera - Easy to book, pay and enjoy. It was a last minute decision and yet we were able to find it easily. Everything went super smooth.

Beautiful production - This was a really well-done production in an intimate space. It didn't have the lux set, the full orchestra, set changes, but it didn't need all that. We were able to understand what was going on for the most part (read up on it on Google before you go, if you are not familiar with the story). The performers were all amazing, I wouldn't be surprised to see them on a big stage performing this opera anywhere!

Lovely opera in a beautiful church - Wonderful singers in a beautiful church. They had two ballet dancers who weren't very good and completely superfluous. Great evening apart from a wriggling audience and loads of people taking videos (one with a selfie stick) in spite of being told not to. Another night the audience might be better behaved but the event was good.

A delight! - The highlights of our four day visit were our evenings at the opera, La Traviata and Opera Arias and Neapolitan songs, in St Paul's within the Walls and the Waldesian church. Wonderful performances from all the lead vocalists in La Traviata, in particular Cristian Alderete, with fantastic music accompaniment, especially the violin. Superb tenor and soprano performances in the Arias and Neapolitan songs. We particularly enjoyed Adriano Gentili on both nights that we heard him. This is definitely a treat on a visit to Rome and we will be back. Thank-you 👏

Enjoyable but not worth paying the extra for priority - Wanted to try this and see if Opera was something we'd enjoy and pleasantly surprised. Don't pay extra for front seats and priority, I was seated behind a pillar with a restricted view

Decent opera for beginners - We booked the show without knowing Italian thinking our Spanish might help. However, we were lost throughout the over two hour show. We did not receive a program but followed a fellow reviewer’s advice to look up the synopsis of the opera to understand the storyline. The opera singers had great voices. Venue and stage are within a church. Overall not bad but would like an authentic opera in an opera house next time.

Awful Experience - There was a terrible noise all the way through the performance. We literally could not concentrate on the singing - we could hardly hear it! We complained and were told that nothing could be done and we were made to feel bad for complaining about it - but lots of people were just leaving having paid a lot of money for their tickets. The staff were not very professional and poorly trained. And the Manager was genuinely nasty and so so rude. We left and would never recommend this experience to anybody. It's a horrible place. The Church shouldn't host them. I've been to the theatre hundreds of times and I have never ever had this experience.

Terrible..!!! - Terrible..!!! I have seen better high school performances. Staff was rude, catered to Italian and Spanish speaking patrons. Temperature was unbearably hot, the fans did nothing. Save your money and time, skip this..!!!
