Since its beginning in 1963, Edmonton Opera has been getting rave reviews from opera lovers, and breathing new life into classics like Carmen and The Barber of Seville. Performances are infrequent but worth seeing if there's one on when you're in town. Note that performances are held at Jubilee Auditorium, a totally different location to where the box office is (15230 128th Ave NW).
