Ever since my grandmother took me to my first [theater performance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avantgarde-theatrical-experience) when I was just a wee girl, I have been had this slight obsession with theater and opera houses -- and I see that David Leventi shares this passion. Capturing the opulent interiors of opera houses in particular, this series makes me want to sneak into one and snap some photos of my own.

Currently being exhibited at the [Arthur Roger Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arthur-residence), David Leventi's [opera house series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hamburg-state-opera) grandly focuses on the stage, while taking in almost every bit of architectural detail inside.
