✨ POSTER REVEAL!✨

We are thrilled to unveil the official artwork for Opera Wilmington’s Summer 2026 double bill: Puccini’s Suor Angelica and Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana.

This striking design was created by Tori J. Thomas (torijthomasdesign.com), whose artistry captures the emotional heartbeat of these two powerful operas.

Stay tuned for our full cast announcement on Monday!

Happy World Opera Day!! (Though honestly… we think every day is a great day for opera! 🌹

Here’s a wee look back at some of our favorite moments from past productions: La Bohème, The Magic Flute, La Traviata, Tosca, and of course, Don Giovanni. Yes, many of them feature iconic death scenes… but hey, that’s opera! 🤩

Hats off to everyone who makes our productions shine: cast, crew, artistic team, orchestra, and of course, you, our wonderful audience! ❤️

We can’t wait to share the evolution of next summer’s double bill: Suor Angelica and Cavalleria Rusticana (featuring some familiar faces?!). Stay tuned!👀👀
