As part of the Opera House’s heritage interpretation program, in May 2019, we exhibited the Curtain of the Sun and Curtain of the Moon, the original house curtains for the Joan Sutherland Theatre and the Drama Theatre. Commissioned for the 1973 opening by architect Peter Hall, and created by John Coburn AM, this was the first time in over a decade that the curtains were exhibited for public viewing.

The Joan Sutherland Theatre is nothing but a black cavity without the Curtain of the Sun. This tapestry is the saving grace for the theatre. It must be there for very performance. If anyone believes or tries to tell you it is safe stored somewhere out of sight and out mind then their motives have to be questioned. The safest place for it is hanging in a totally controlled environment such as the theatre where it belongs. Tapestries last for centuries. The Drama theatre is an even uglier dark box and needs the Curtain of the Moon desperately. If set designers complain about the brightness, sack them. I can see over the next 100 years every new "CEO" is going to have a fiddle with the Opera House and leave a string of vandalization rendering it unrecognizable.
