Will mainstage opera performances have staging changes because of COVID-19?

Staging modifications will be made to protect the health and safety of the artists. Audiences can look forward to dramatically and musically exciting performances—albeit different from what they have experienced in the past and will see in the post-pandemic future. A specially designed set will allow for the creation of a unique visual landscape for every production, with a multitude of projections and lighting used to create and support each story’s atmosphere and dramatic action. Costumes, makeup, and hair design will be streamlined—conveying the essence of each individual character without requiring elaborate costumes and wigs. The creative team for each production can be found on our website here. Click on the performance you are interested in attending and view the “Cast and Creative” section at the bottom of the page.
