Looking for a fun and unique family day out in Leeds? Get ready to put on your detective hats! Opera North's The Big Opera Mystery is a brand-new, interactive show that's perfect for a brilliant day out with the kids.

An expert thief is on the loose, and we need your help to catch them! This isn't just a show to watch - it's an adventure to be part of. With live music from the Orchestra of Opera North, children will experience the excitement of musical storytelling alongside the interactive detective adventure. Bring the whole family and join the investigation, using your thinking-caps and crime-solving skills to crack the case.

Aimed at children aged 5 - 12, this is a great way to introduce young audiences to the magic of opera in a way that's anything but boring. The suspects are some of the most famous characters in all of opera, and the detective is YOU! It's the perfect first encounter with opera and a fantastic thing to do in Leeds with the kids.
