*Dear Sunday ticket holders,

Due to this weekend’s impending weather situation and, in the interest of keeping our artists, patrons and employees safe, we have decided to cancel Sunday afternoon’s double-bill performance of Service Provider/Pagliacci.

With apologies for the short notice, we are lucky that our cast was available to add a performance on Thursday evening for an enthusiastic audience, and we are still able to offer you a chance to see this show!  Check your email for your options.

SOLD OUT

Join us for a night of chaotic love triangles at the OperaDelaware Studios for Service Provider and Paglicci this January!

Service Provider
is a witty, contemporary comic opera by Christopher Weiss and John de los Santos sung in English. When a married couple sits down for a romantic dinner, things take a hilarious turn with the surprise arrival of the husband’s mistress. Fast-paced, sharply written, and hilariously relatable, this bite-sized drama is a modern take on timeless relationship chaos.

After intermission, buckle up for Pagliacci—Leoncavallo’s searing classic Italian verismo opera of jealousy, betrayal, and heartbreak. Presented in an innovative piano reduction, this raw and riveting second act delivers all the emotional power of a full-scale production, with every note and nuance felt up close.

SOLD OUT

Please note: individual charcuterie plates are smaller than the example pictured. plates will be 5x7” and will include an assortment or meats, cheeses, fruits, and nuts.

Make your night complete by adding on a personal CHARCUTERIE PLATE made by our friends at HEARD, CHEF!

Pre-order now to enjoy a personal 5x7” charcuterie plate for $35 which includes genoa salami, prosciutto ham, caprese skewers, rosemary cashews, an olive medley, fruit, mini chocolate chip cookies, and more PLUS two drink tickets to enjoy beer, wine, or Dogfish Head Canned Cocktails at the bar!
