OperaDelaware Current Season

At the crossroads of good and evil, sin and soul, hope and despair, you'll find the beauty and drama of our 2011-2012 season -- where the nobility of timeless characters meets the abilities of our talented artists.  Mozart's The Magic Flute has it all -- mystical creatures, heroes, villains, comic characters, pageantry, mystery, magic.  Porgy and Bess by George Gershwin depicts a world in which people triumph over adversity through their faith, their sense of community and their love of life.  And our Studio Series highlights the beauty of the human voice in an intimate setting.  Come join us for "magnificient" opera!
