Lonely Planet review

The ENO's new music director, Edward Gardner, is promising better years ahead, and God knows they need better years. Generally renowned for making opera modern and relevant, the ENO has been suffering a miserable few years of bad reviews, financial difficulties and media flak (not helped by Gaddafi: The Opera in 2006). Five hundred around £10 -and-under tickets are available for all weekday performances. All opera at the ENO is sung in English.

The company's home is the impressive Coliseum building, built in 1904 and wonderfully restored in 2004.
