Everything was great except for the fact that the rooms were really hot and lacking in air circulation. We had to leave early because my travel companion was felling like she would pass out from lack of air. Venice is tiring due to all the walking during the day and after a nice dinner, it's hard to sit in a hot room that does not have enough fresh air.
I would still call it a great experience but the air quality in the rooms need some improvement.

We loved the close up experience - I estimate around 60 - 70 people max. The performers were AMAZING and the venue was stunning. To be able to watch an a show of this quality in an historic building is not to be missed.

A great enjoyable evening. It was casual but elegant.... it took place in an old palace. We moved between 3 rooms. This was my first opera and it was such a nice introduction. I would mention that if you have mobility issues that this may not be for you. There are two large staircases that you need to navigate.

Unique experience for sure. Great talent. Felt like a private opera for 40-50 in beautiful old palace. Loved the move to different rooms after each act. Literally sat a foot away from cast.

The performance of La Traviata was nicely done by professional performers in a wonderful setting. You literally sit mere feet away from the musicians and singers, as each act is performed in a different room of the beautiful palazzo.
A very different opera experience that should be experienced by all.

What a wonderful experience. An intimate opera, performed in a palace. Each act is in a different room and guests have a brief intermission between act changes. The first intermission included some wine or other beverages for enjoyment. The performers were absolutely excellent and my partner and I were both moved by the performances. Such amazing voices! And what a treat to have them 10’ in front of you. It’s an experience like none other and it was one of the highlights of our whole trip to Italy. Not to be missed.

The show was good but even if you know the premise , it was hard to follow. They could have a quick narrative at the beginning of each act which would have made it a little easier to follow.
The seats were super uncomfortable and they crammed them in together very close. There were plenty of empty ones so they easily could have spaced them out better. Also if you don’t get a front row seat it can be hard to see even though the troupe moves around. We were expecting a more grande palace as well and this one has seen better days.
The orchestra of 3 was wonderful and the troupe was talented. Overall we had a good time , but would not do it again.

Was very entertaining and well done. Only critique would be seating in the first scene. After that was fantastic.

This was La Traviata, an abridged version that moved from one room to another in an old mansion. It was simply magic! I loved every part of it, including finding my way from the canel through alleyways and travelling back and forth from Mestre by bus and vaporetto.

The performance was wonderful and very well done! All the singing was beautiful and truly a joy to see! The only issue was the seating. We got there 25 minutes early and we got the last seats in the back and couldn’t see anything since the seating wasn’t staggered. During room changes, we thought that we would be able to see more but it was still very hard if you weren’t in the front row. The seats were also very uncomfortable and too close together so you were roughing those around you the whole time. Seating aside, we had a lovely time and would recommend to others! But we would say to get there at least 45 minutes to an hour early if you want to actually see anything
