Your crushed dreams of singing at the Opera House can now be un-crushed

If a lack of vocal ability has so far hampered your chances to sing at the legendary Sydney Opera House, then you’ll wanna mark October 8 off on your Leunig calendar, as that’s the day the Opera House are throwing open their doors and inviting members of the public to take part in a massive singalong in the Concert Hall Northern Foyer.

Best of all, there is no skill level required, and it’s free to come along (but you gotta register).

The show is called ‘Singing in The House’ and runs for approximately ninety minutes (with no interval and no refreshments, so bring your own bottled water, as it can get quite hot when the sun belted through those big windows) and is suitable for all ages. Maybe not babies, though.

Doors open at 9.45am in order for the singing to start at 10am. Also, from the organisers: “There are no dress requirements – we suggest you wear something comfortable and casual clothes are fine. Due to space restrictions, only those registered to sing will be able to enter the venue, unfortunately we cannot accommodate spectators.

Here’s a bunch of guys testing the acoustics for you.
