Yeah, that's totally understandable.

From the small sampling I've done so far, major opera houses around the world do not have dress codes anymore. Many of the ones in Europe even specify that jeans and trainers are fine. I'm surprised but it doesn't bother me as long as, like you said, it doesn't detract from anyone seeing/hearing the performance. In my case at the theatre the other day and earlier this year when I went with friends, it did :( Plus, both theatres had a dress code. I like the idea of having casual guidelines rather than a strict dress code. Make opera and ballet and theatre accessible to all but give guidance on how not to spoil it for others. And ban food and drink in the audience!!!

I'm with you there, if it's something that could disrupt others' enjoyment of the experience like crunching popcorn or candies or slurping straws then by all means ban them. I just feel wearing something less than formal isn't ruining the experience when a formal event wasn't what was actually promised by the venue.

Some high end places *do* have dress codes but those specifically cater to that kind of experience which is fair and fine with me.
