The LA Opera has beautiful, lavish productions of many wonderful and classic operas. Placidio has really nurtured the opera, as their music diretor, and they are doing some amazing things. The Opear is still rather traditional and has not done anything cutting edge like the Philharmonic, but it is still a beautiful cultural experiance. The Dorothy CHandler is a beautiful facility. Parking is $8. They have some nice places to eat there, but they are rather spendy.
