English National Opera (ENO), London

The English National Opera (ENO) has its home at the beautiful Coliseum near Trafalgar Square. Luckily for those who only speak English, all the operas performed are in their native tongue. The setting and the prices also make the Coliseum more accessible than the Royal Opera House . There is definitely a contemporary approach to both the traditional and more modern operas here and if you're not too familiar with opera, an ENO production is a good place to start.
