Lectures & Discussions

TDO offers more than one way to look at each opera. Whether you’d like to listen to a formal lecture about a composer and the history of an opera, or join in a lively discussion on social issues portrayed in a particular opera, TDO has an event for you.

Pre-Opera Talks	Join us for the Joy and Ronald Mankoff Pre-Opera Talks one hour before each TDO performance. These 30-minute lectures are FREE with a ticket to a TDO performance. Beat the traffic and enjoy a beverage while you learn about the opera you’re about to see.
Opera Insights	Hear directly from the cast and artistic teams of each opera at Opera Insights.
Composing Conversations	Join TDO as they present noteworthy composers as part of the ongoing Composing Conversations series.
