I went to the ballet there on my thirtieth birthday!!! I went with friends that I met at the youth hostel (I was traveling alone in Europe at the time) and finished the evening on the Left Bank...(we walked through the red light district, unbeknownst to us until we saw the "ladies" standing in the doorways, paying more attention to the guy we were with than anyone else!) The memory is getting fuzzy, but I do remember the grandeur of the l'opera house!!!
