There's always the cinema production - http://www.cineworld.co.uk/whatson/g...ve-la-traviata on 8th June, with Don Giovanni on 6th July and La Traviata on August 10th.
I also expect that the Rosenkavalier will come round again. Presumably most productions are recycled periodically to reduce overall costs.
I'm only partially a fan of the cinema productions, though they are considerably cheaper - usually around £15 in these parts, but they do generally show the whole stage, which the side seats at Glyndebourne do not. The Rameau from last year looked rather different on screen than in life from the upper recesses of the hall.
We quite enjoyed the recent ROH Don Giovanni in the cinema, while I gather that some found it disappointing in the opera house. It was also a lot cheaper considering the available seating - at one point I thought I'd rather see it "for real", and then I looked at the prices.
I'm going to have to start betting on horses in order to afford this kind of entertainment. We've "invested" all our arms and legs in the Onegin production, though for practical reasons we probably won't have an expensive holiday anywhere this year.
In previous years some of the Glyndebourne productions were available for on-line on-demand streaming, though the advent of cinema presentations may mean that this does not happen again this year.
