In observance of Juneteenth, the Toledo Opera offices will be closed on Friday, June 19.

Juneteenth is a time to honor freedom, reflect on our shared history, and recommit ourselves to building stronger, more equitable communities through learning, service, and connection. We encourage our patrons and friends to take time to reflect, support local organizations and events, and engage with the community in meaningful ways.

While our offices will be closed, ticketing for Toledo Opera’s 2026–27 season is always available online, 24/7, at toledoopera.org.

We look forward to welcoming you back soon. 💙

🎭 2026–27 Season Spotlight: Aida

We’re thrilled to welcome Linda Brovsky as stage director for Aida in our 2026–27 season! With innovative productions spanning the United States and internationally — from Seattle Opera to San Francisco Opera, Santa Fe Opera, and beyond — Ms. Brovsky is celebrated for bringing fresh vision to both classic repertoire and world premieres.

Her recent credits include Don Quichotte at the Canadian Opera Company, Rigoletto for Seattle Opera, La Bohème at Lyric Opera of Kansas City, and Il Barbiere di Siviglia for Pittsburgh Opera, among many others. She has also directed numerous world premieres, including David Carlson’s The Midnight Angel and Scott Eyerly’s The House of the Sevengables, and her talents extend to musical theater with productions like the 50th Anniversary National Tour of Oklahoma! and Carousel at Opera Grand Rapids.

Now, she brings her creativity, precision, and passion for storytelling to Verdi’s epic masterpiece, crafting a production that promises to be as visually stunning as it is emotionally powerful.

🎶 Meet Our Summer Intern! 🎶

Please join us in welcoming Jonah Hiatt to Toledo Opera!

Jonah hails from the Blissfield, Michigan area, and is an upcoming junior at Adrian College, where he is pursuing degrees in Vocal Performance and Arts Management. Over the next several weeks, he'll be working alongside our staff and gaining hands-on experience in the many facets of producing opera and serving our community.

When asked about his favorite opera, Jonah couldn't choose just one: it's a tie between Die Fledermaus and Pagliacci.

We're excited to have Jonah with us this summer and look forward to introducing him to the many people who make Toledo Opera such a special place. Be sure to say hello if you see him around the office!
