Welcome to Annapolis Opera’s 36th season
This season Annapolis Opera offers you more beautiful opera for less money. Subscribers save even more and avoid the disappointment that many faced with last season’s blockbuster production of Bizet’s Carmen when they found that every seat was SOLD OUT.
Next March's fully staged production will be the emotionally charged pair of operas, Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana and Leoncavallo’s Pagliacci. Two operas for the price of one!
Our mission is to provide a venue for great singers early in their careers. Next year we feature wonderful young singers in two concert opera events. November's Dying Divas and Dastardly Dons on All Hallows afternoon celebrates opera's greatest tragic moments and dreadful characters. Next May's Romantic Divas and Amorous Dons turns to affairs of the heart, with selections from the world's most beloved operatic romances.
Our holiday concert, Bel Canto by Candlelight, will feature “beautiful singing” in a special setting at the great price of just $30 per ticket (even less for subscribers). We hope it lifts your spirits and gives you joy during the entire holiday season.
Finally, the region's best opera value - Annapolis Opera's 21st Annual Vocal Competition Finals” - returns in February. And our children's opera, The Three Billy Goats Gruff returns in April as our most popular program for developing the opera lovers of tomorrow
Ticket sales don't come close to covering the cost of presenting opera in Annapolis. Are you willing to help Annapolis Opera continue to thrive and grow? Consider becoming an Annapolis Opera supporter. Categories from Member through Underwriter with benefits are described in the brochure.
