Indianapolis Opera

Reviving a classic holiday tradition, we invite you and your loved ones to witness a beautiful one-act opera from Giancarlo Menotti in celebration of the Christmas season. Amahl and the Night Visitors tells the story of a poor, crippled shepherd boy named Amahl, who is visited by three Magi seeking shelter for the night as they journey to Bethlehem to see the newborn baby Jesus. Join us for two special performances of this touching story of healing and joy. 

Amahl and the Night Visitors

In honor of over 50 years of opera tradition in our great city, Indianapolis Opera, in partnership with the Italian Heritage Society of Indiana, debuts an all-new fundraising event celebrating music, design, & culinary artistry. Join us for a curated night of gourmet Italian cuisine, fine wine, glamorous fashion, and transcendent opera singing amid a gallery of Ferrari sports cars!

LIBIAMO! A Renaissance of Taste & Tempo

You saw Part I with Rossini’s The Barber of Seville! Now get ready for Part II of Beaumarchais’ farcical tale of class conflict with Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro! Filled with beautiful music and familiar melodies, like the famous Overture, “Sull’aria,” ”Porgi, amor”, and “Non più andrai,“ chaos is on full display amid a plot of mistaken identities, marital infidelities, shocking revelations, and brilliant women outwitting their male counterparts. Join us for some of the finest music and greatest comic moments ever written!​

The Marriage of Figaro
