What an experience Turandot was—in fact, what an experience the entire season was! 🥂 The 2024–2025 season had it all: a poignant and complex story in The Brightness of Light 🎨, which featured our good friends ⭐ Renée Fleming and Rod Gilfry ⭐; zany hilarity and hijinks with the infectious music of Rossini in The Barber of Seville 💈; a tremendously moving story of human and family connection in Cruzar la Cara de la Luna 🦋; and we wrapped it up with an operatic spectacle of the grandest proportions with Turandot 👑. If all that wasn't enough, we also received our first ever GRAMMY® nomination with our recording of The Shining 🏆. I don't know about you, but I laughed, cried, and was moved by the raw human emotion that only opera can deliver. Relive the season below with our 2024–25 gallery. 👇
