    An overture is a piece of music played by an orchestra at the beginning of an opera or play. It is a French word which literally means opening.

    24, according to your answers. 25 really because an overture is played at the beginning of any opera or musical and consists of snippets from pieces in the show segued together. Also Antarctic was missing a 'C'. I’ll give you 8/10 for this one.

      The game was released at the same time under licence by two different companies in Britain and America. In Britain the game was marketed as Cluedo to be alliterative with Ludo another game very popular at the time; admittedly the US's Clue makes more sense as a name.

    PLEASE NOTE your question about when does the overture get played - before opera, in middle of opera pr at end of opera - you gave the WRONG answer - In the middle of opera. The correct answer is that the Overture is played BEFORE the opera.
