Most opera lovers will be familiar with the Drottningholm Palace Theatre near Stockholm. Less familiar is the Confidencen Theatre in the Ulriksdal Palace. It’s a small theatre (200 seats?) built in the 1650s and restored in the early 21st century. It now hosts concerts and operas and in August 2021 it played John Blow’s Venus and Adonis in a double bill with Henry Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas. The operas were recorded and issued on Blu-ray and DVD.
