Mumbai’s Royal Opera House Marks 10 Years Since Restoration

Mumbai’s historic Royal Opera House recently celebrated the tenth anniversary of its restoration with a special musical event. First opened in 1911 and shut down in 1991, India’s only surviving opera house was commissioned for restoration in 2010 by the Gondal royal family.
Architect Abha Narain Lambah restored the 575-seat Baroque-style building over six years. Over the past decade, the venue has boosted the local creative economy by hosting music, theatre, dance, and international cultural events.
