Dayton Opera - The Dayton Opera performed its first season in 1961-1962. In 2003, Dayton Opera moved to its new home at the State-of-the-art Benjamin and Marian Schuster Performing Arts Center, enabling the company to produce bigger and better productions in an acoustically superior theatre. Under the leadership of Artistic Director Kathleen Clawson, Dayton Opera presents four to five productions each season, from engaging operas from the classic repertoire, such as The Barber of Seville and Madame Butterfly and producing groundbreaking new works, such as the Consul and Dead Man Walking, created by thought-provoking 20th century composers to grand sweeping operatic events, from Aida to La Boheme to Carmen. In 2023, the first performance of Wagner in Dayton in a half century drew large, young audiences to the Dayton Opera's own, brand-new production of Das Rheingold, and the opera saw its most diverse audience ever with a production of Charlie Parker's Yardbird. Dayton Opera has proven itself as a world-class opera company, attracting richly talented singers and stage directors from across the country and around the world.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2022 – Jun 30, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.1M
