I got to see the Dialogues des Carmélites in Oslo, Norway while I was cat-sitting for a music teacher who happened to have a spare ticket :)
Saw Puccini's Madama Butterfly via a live screening at Gloucester Guildhall.
Didn't hate it but glad I didn't have to buy £270 tickets for the experience!

I've seen multiple live operas since I made this goal, including Lulu (by Berg) and The Merry Widow (Franz Lehar). I've also seen a bunch of operas online, thanks to the Met's live streams, including Mossorgsky's Boris Godunov tonight, and several prior ones this year, like Peter Grimes, Akhnaten, Doctor Atomic, and Carmen.
