10 Things You’ll Experience This Season
The 2016-2017 Season is set to be an exciting one here at Opera Philadelphia, full of love, passion, lust and power. What do we mean, exactly? Join us throughout the year and you’ll see…
Young artists get schooled
Christine Goerke will lead a Master Class with our Emerging Artists.
So many severed heads
Don’t worry, they’re fake. Now if only Turandot’s suitors would stop ringing that gong! (But then we wouldn’t have an opera…)
Couples consciously coupling (on-stage and off)
Turandot and Calaf, Jan and Bess, Tancredi and Amenaide…Chris & Lucy? That’s right: Lucy Shaufer and Christopher Gillet, appearing in The Marriage of Figaro are married in real life!
Stephanie Blythe wears the pants
When she makes her role debut as Tancredi, that is.
'70s fashion is back (in a good way!)
Emmy-winning designer Chrisi Karvonides created the costumes for '70s-set Breaking the Waves.
A love letter go horribly awry
The beautiful Amenaide just can’t catch a break.
Lady Macbeth doing laundry
Third World Bunfight transports Verdi’s Macbeth to the Democratic Republic of Congo where Lady Macbeth owns a laundrette before her husband becomes a warlord.
Dozens of debuts
From directors to singers to costume designers, we’re welcoming even more talent to the Opera Philadelphia family this year.
An oil rig in the Kimmel Center
Ok, not a real oil rig, per se, but you’ll see what we mean.
Mimosas for days
Brunches at the Academy of Music and The Capital Grille? Count us in.
