the 2026/27 Season is here!
OperaDelaware's ambitious 2026/27 season features two of the greatest operas ever written and a full year of music, myth, and discovery beyond the main stage.
This October, Mozart's Don Giovanni arrives at The Grand Opera House: a moral thriller, a ghost story, and a dark comedy built around the most charmingly dangerous man in the operatic canon. Before you meet Don Giovanni at The Grand, join OperaDelaware for Don Giovanni Portraits, and intimate chamber performance at the OperaDelaware Studios. In the spring, Gluck's Orpheus and Eurydice brings the oldest love story ever told to devastating, luminous life. OperaDelaware’s Chamber Series spans from the holiday magic of Menotti's Amahl and the Night Visitors at the Sunday Breakfast Mission to the gothic darkness of Puccini's very first opera, the rarely performed Le Villi at the OperaDelaware Studios. Add to that the passion and politics of Torroba's beloved Spanish-language zarzuela Fernanda, the raw, confessional intensity of Written in Secret, and Orpheus Retold, an evening of three one-act operas rewriting mythology from the inside out, and you have a season unlike any OperaDelaware has offered before.
