Basically where characters are attending an Opera, Classical Music concert, Theater show or a similar performance to take in some high culture. Yet this is mainly about what the characters do in the velvet seats in the posh auditorium. What happens on stage is usually irrelevant, even though we do usually get to see a little of the opera or concert. If what is being performed matters at all, it's to give the attending characters something to emotionally relate to. If the story features characters involved with the actual production in an important way (such as the main character finally getting the big part he/she dreamed about), it's not this trope. In some stories, the real show is the people attending. They come in their finest suits, dresses, jewels, furs, and opera-length High-Class Gloves, often tailored to fit the current styles... and by current styles we mean an unwritten Dress Code that sorts out the Old Money patrons from the Nouveau Riche. As a consequence the patrons may not even pay attention to most of the show itself (which was the case in Real Life until about Richard Wagner's day) so they can talk and gossip. If they are in a private box, they may even play cards, drink wine, eat and even have an amorous dalliance or two... In some stories, this is just to show one or more characters trying to be cultured, while other characters are bored to tears. When Men Are Uncultured, this is an opportunity to demonstrate masculinity by swearing off the flowery show to which their wives have taken them. Conversely, the more worldly man can take his less sophisticated love interest to the opera to impress and cultivate her. Sure enough, she is wowed by the glamorous surroundings and mesmerized by the performance, while he observes her contently. (See also Girls Stare at Scenery, Boys Stare at Girls.)

CSI: NY: In "Murder Sings the Blues," Peyton takes Mac to the opera for his birthday. He gets called to a crime scene during the standing ovation, interrupting the rest of her plans. Downplayed earlier in the series when Lindsay shows up to a scene in a formal dress, having been called in while seeing an opera herself. Averted in the 9/11 10th anniversary tribute, "Indelible." Mac & Claire are shown in a flashback to that fateful morning. He had surprised her with opera tickets for that evening and held onto them after she died in the attacks, but finally releases them in the tide at the end of this episode. |

The Simpsons have attended several theatrical performances. Lisa and Marge will be paying attention while Bart and Homer usually get bored. Lisa, being a eight-year-old child, occasionally joins Bart and Homer in their shenanigans (or at least laughs with/at them). In the trilogy "Magical History Tour" where Bart plays Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Lisa (as Salieri) dopes the Emperor during a Mozart performance so he falls asleep, leading the fops in the audience to follow the Emperor's lead. The film "The Poke of Zorro" that the Simpsons go to see is a Historical Mash-up wherein Zorro saves the life of the King Arthur at the opera house (after fighting The Three Musketeers, The Man in the Iron Mask, ninjas, and The Scarlet Pimpernel) and is proclaimed the new king of England. |

Looney Tunes: the essential classic "Rabbit of Seville" has Bugs and Elmer not only at the opera, they're in it as well. Since it is purely spur of the moment as it started as a typical hunter-vs.-prey chase, everything is being improvised to great hilarity. The later "What's Opera, Doc?" indicates everything has been meticulously and painstakingly rehearsed. | |

Batman Begins eschews sending the Wayne family to the usual movie (Tyrone Power in Zorro) and instead has Thomas and Martha Wayne mugged and killed leaving the opera early. (The opera in question is Mefistofele by Arrigo Boito, which shows thought from the writers: a lazy writer would probably have gone with Die Fledermaus for the name, but Mefistofele is much more thematically appropriate.) | |

The Fifth Elephant has Vimes attending a dwarf opera with his wife, along with various other diplomats and dignitaries. He spends more time working out who among the audience is on his suspect list and why, and his main reaction to the opera (which depicts the creation of the stolen coronation artifact, the Scone of Stone) is to wonder which dwarf in the love story is which, as both dwarf sexes traditionally wear chainmail and have beards. The plot, which Sybil knows very well, does play a key role in the book's climax. | |

Tim himself ends up at the Opera House after it's been heavily damaged by the quakes that triggered Batman: No Man's Land, attending a vaudeville style production since the abandoned house has been taken over by artsy types who give out free food and let almost anyone perform, from poetry readings, to short plays, piano recitals, and comedy acts. | |

The climax of Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers takes place at the opera. Speaking of, the movie has a Running Gag in which, whenever Pete mentions the opera, the scene cuts to a poster showing the spectacle that was meant to play at the opera, and a fanfare plays. Pete even breaks the fourth wall on one occasion: |

In Milo Murphy's Law, Milo and his friends attend the opera for extra credit while his crush, Amanda, does it for fun. Since Amanda mentions that she really doesn't want anything to go wrong, Milo spends most of the time backstage, trying and failing to prevent all the chaos Murphy's Law causes during the performance. Given that Milo is played by a famous singer, wanna bet whether or not he's eventually Pushed in Front of the Audience? | |

The Polish film Sala Samobojcow, or Suicide Room, begins and ends at the opera. It opens with Dominik's family watching a performance. Later in the story, when they visit again, Dominik has a breakdown, tells his parents he is gay and promptly begins making out with a marble bust. In a sad sort of symmetry, the story ends at the opera after Dominik's suicide with his parents sitting in separate boxes. They are now divorced. | |

Final Fantasy VI has its famous "Aria di Mezzo Carattere", but it's the only part of the show that we see in detail. The plot actually focuses on the party trying to rig a meeting with Setzer and gaining access to his airship by using Celes as a decoy for the real opera singer, Maria, who Setzer plans to kidnap. And then Ultros decides to drop in as well... Also hilarious for some of the party members' reactions to high culture: In the ROM Hack General Leo Edition, the Opera is a retelling of Final Fantasy II. |

Eric is bored out of his mind, but just as he's about to give up and leave, "Ride of the Valkyries" begins to play, which he recognizes as "Kill Da Wabbit."

The Loud House: In "For Bros About to Rock", a flashback depicts Lisa and Luna at the opera, apparently to see Die Walkure. Luna gets bored by Act II and attempts a stage dive into the orchestra pit, causing Brunnhilde to swoon. In "Future Tense", Mr. and Mrs. Loud attempt to make their kids more "well-rounded" by taking them to the opera (this time it's The Barber of Seville). As a Call-Back to "For Bros About to Rock", Lisa's the only one who seems to be interested. |

The pilot for Murder, She Wrote has Jessica watching the rehearsal of a murder mystery play, and giving away who the killer is before the first act was up. Some later episodes have her attending plays(occasionally based on her own works) and ballet productions, and inevitably helping solve murders that take place at these events. In one episode, she tells a detective, "There are three things in life that you can never have enough of, Lieutenant; friends, chocolate and theater." | |

She dodges the security officers by jumping onto the stage and scrambling up the back wall; the audience thinks she's All Part of the Show and applauds. | |

The beginning of Edith Wharton's The Age of Innocence is a long look of this trope and a chance to get to know the setting. This setting is revisited a few times. Also, Wharton discusses how the crowd chatters as a matter of course during certain songs, but remain obediently quiet for the important songs. | |

Gunslinger Girl. Rico and Henrietta assassinate two men during a performance of Tosca at the Teatro Reale dell'Opera, with the girl's handlers explaining the plot to them. Back at the compound, Claes and Triela muse over how Rico and Henrietta would react if they saw the opera, and Claes even recites Tosca's Cry to God aria. When they return, Rico and Henrietta just say they hadn't paid much attention as they were working, being more interested in what their handlers thought of their performance. | |

Amadeus naturally has several opera scenes: over the course of the film, we see bits of performances of The Abduction from the Seraglio, The Marriage of Figaro, The Magic Flute, and Don Giovanni by Mozart, as well as the finale of Salieri's Axur, Re d'Ormus. For the central characters—Salieri and Mozart—these are work, but the character of the 18th-century Viennese opera night is expressed rather well—that is to say, rich people in fancy dress chatting and drinking and only half-paying attention to the action onstage, with the ones who had their own boxes getting dinner served and sometimes drunkenly tossing orange peels and other refuse onto the audience below. | |

This is done early in The Count of Monte Cristo with people paying more attention to who's in the other boxes (one of whom is the mysterious count himself) than to anything happening on the stage. A bit of Truth in Television - at the time that the story is set, the opera itself was often incidental to the social act of simply being there and being seen (though the Count is very much there for the music). | |

A portion of Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows sees Holmes attempt to stop a plot from going off at an opera production of Don Giovanni, with portions of DG's score even written into Hans Zimmer's movie score. The entire opera plot ends up being a Red Herring, however, as when Holmes finds his way to the centerpiece of the plot, he finds a chess piece left there by Moriarty, who gives him a gloating nod from his box. The real plot was elsewhere. | |

Cyrano de Bergerac begins at the Burgundy Hotel, a Parisian theater. The public was going to see La Clorise, but before it begins, all they really want is to play cards, drink wine, eat food, brawl with each other, tease girls, play funny pranks, and work (some pickpocketing). | |

Interview with the Vampire (2022): "In Throes of Increasing Wonder...": The first opera Louis de Pointe du Lac and Lestat de Lioncourt attend together is Iolanta. Louis is so dazzled by the performance that he was "near weeping when the curtain fell," while Lestat prefers to study the gorgeous facial features of his Love Interest despite being an opera aficionado. "...After the Phantoms of Your Former Self": The couple later see Don Pasquale at a more upscale, formal venue (they dress in tuxedos instead of suits) and Lestat pays for a private box, but the big downside is that black people are barred from entering unless they're a servant of a white person, so Louis must pose as Lestat's valet. Although they were impressed by the soprano Sofia Consoli, their date was marred by the tenor who portrays Ernesto, whose singing was out of tune throughout the show. Lestat decides to punish the tenor by making a meal out of him. |

Given how often opera is mentioned on Frasier, the characters attend it on screen surprisingly little. Though they often mention trips to the opera, and/or meet in Frasier's apartment before a performance. (It's likely the budget of a sitcom just didn't cover lots of extras in fancy dress on many occasions). In the episode "Hot Ticket", Frasier and Niles see the last play by a notable theater actor. But they care more about the prestige of the play than the content, so rather than admit they had to miss it, they fake seeing the play. Frasier manages to bluff seeing it to the actor himself, who laments how people often care more about such things because they are fashionable than caring about the art itself. |

In "Future Tense", Mr. and Mrs. Loud attempt to make their kids more "well-rounded" by taking them to the opera (this time it's The Barber of Seville). As a Call-Back to "For Bros About to Rock", Lisa's the only one who seems to be interested. | |
