Welcome to Opera Theater of Pittsburgh
Opera Theater crosses boundaries. In our 35th year, the company reaches out across traditional lines of demarcation in the arts, presenting works that engage diverse, new and younger audiences, bringing people from different backgrounds together, including supporters of music, theater, dance and the visual arts, and involving them in experiences that have meaning and impact.

Opera Theater’s second summer season runs July 6-21 at The Twentieth Century Club in Oakland, Pittsburgh’s original cultural corridor. Four mainstage operas (see menus above), four newly commissioned Night Caps mini-operas, dining options, cabaret after the show, Mozart in Concert and Mozart Camp.
Stellar internationally-acclaimed artists are joined by resident and young artists to form our summer company. Regional and national artists are seen in our special events year-round. And rising stars compete in annual fall competitions.
Children experience their first opera education in our regional early childhood residencies and performances of Hansel and Gretel. Area middle and high school students enjoy classroom residencies and pre-season performances of Shining Brow in 2013.
