About
The Jersey Opera House is a working theatre and opera house in La Vingtaine de la Ville, Saint Helier, Jersey, Channel Islands. The theatre building is administered by the States of Jersey but is managed by Jersey Opera House Limited. The current CEO is Sebastian Warrack.
The current building is a 1922 reconstruction (by Jesty & Baker) of the 1900 original building by Adolphus Curry (1848–1910), with additional extension facilities provided since. The façade has been described as "imposing and slightly Frenchified". As part of the current refurbishment, the canopy has been removed to restore the facade to its original 1960s look.
Its chandelier has 10,200 pieces and is carefully cleaned about every five years.
