Opera to Go! is a fully-staged, high-energy, 45-minute opera, sung entirely in English and designed with students in mind. Opera to Go! is performed across countless schools and community venues all over the greater Houston region as well as to further regions in the great State of Texas.
Houston Grand Opera is committed to the future of opera through initiatives that engage new audiences and give new artists a stage for their voices to be heard. Through this commitment we have had the honor of commissioning a plethora of world premieres—both mainstage grand operas and smaller-scale works—as well as hosting the American premieres of several major operas, paving the way for new eras of the art form in all genres, time periods, and languages.
All performances at Miller Outdoor Theatre are FREE!
