Complications in Sue
World Premiere
One librettist, one actor, four singers, and ten composers join forces to make opera in a brand-new way. In his first opera libretto, Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning playwright Michael R. Jackson (A Strange Loop) traces the life of a woman named Sue whose personality is split in two. Sue’s life, from the mundane to the extraordinary, unfolds before us, with each decade scored by a different musical luminary. Opera Philadelphia favorites Missy Mazzoli (Breaking the Waves, The Listeners), Rene Orth (10 Days in a Madhouse), and Nico Muhly (Dark Sisters) return alongside a panoply of company debuts from notable composers, like GRAMMY® nominee Nathalie Joachim. The production stars MacArthur Genius and cabaret icon Justin Vivian Bond, with Zack Winokur directing, and conductor Caren Levine making her Opera Philadelphia debut.
All tickets are Pick Your Price, starting at $11. In addition, $10 rush tickets will be available before the performance. |

Harry Bicket, Conductor
San Francisco Symphony
Conductor Harry Bicket returns with an all-Mozart program ranging from world-renowned warhorses to lesser-known—but no less deserving—selections. Symphony No. 34 boasts a snazzy opening fanfare that Mozart liked enough to recycle in two later opera overtures, while the bewitching Symphony No. 38 is nicknamed “Prague” in honor of the city where its premiere took place to rave reviews. Mozart collaborated on three operas—The Marriage of Figaro, Don Giovanni, and Così fan tutte—with the Venetian poet and adventurer Lorenzo da Ponte. Soprano Golda Schultz sings selections from all three.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Serenade No. 6 in D major, K.239, Serenata notturna

Raise a glass to the close of UNITYFest 2026 at an elegant reception in downtown San Antonio. Hosted at the historic Gunter Hotel, the evening reflects the building’s German roots, shaped in 1886 when German hoteliers Ludwig Mahncke and Lesher A. Trexler took over the property. That heritage comes alive through festive German-style music by the Alex Meixner Band, creating a refined yet welcoming celebration to toast the festival’s joyful finale. |

“Pure Glee! Spamalot is deliriously funny!” -The Wall Street Journal
“The funniest musical on Broadway!” -The Washington Post
“A hilarious funfest filled with true Broadway razzle dazzle!” –Entertainment Weekly
The show that set Broadway back 1,000 years!
The Tony-Award winning Best Musical comedy
Spamalot, which first galloped onto Broadway in 2005, features a book & lyrics by Eric Idle and music by John Du Prez and Eric Idle. The original Broadway production was nominated for fourteen Tony Awards and won three, including Best Musical. The musical comedy lovingly ripped off from the film classic, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, has everything that makes a great knight at the theatre, from flying cows to killer rabbits, British royalty to French taunters, dancing girls, rubbery shrubbery, and of course, the Lady of the Lake. |

Ephrat Asherie collaborates with GRAMMY® award-winning pianist and composer Arturo O’Farrill on the company’s newest creation, Shadow Cities, a reflection on the beauty, vastness and joy of the in-between. Bringing together Asherie’s innovative and rigorous choreography with O’Farrill’s singular and mesmerizing sound, Shadow Cities is a beautiful extension of EAD’s dedication to working with live music. With a cast of 6 dancers and 4 musicians, this work explores what it means to stay afloat in the in-between. We are split between cities, memories and generations; we are an amalgam of cultures, fully embodied and fragmented all at once; our movements are concurrently malleable and explosive, our identities fixed and infinitely fluid. Whether as immigrants, BIPOC identities or first generation Americans, this feeling of in-betweenness connects everyone in the work as we ask how and why—halfway between so many disparate extremes in time, space and state—we often feel our most enlivened selves. |

Smart, sophisticated partnership of violin and guitar soloists at the top of their craft
One would be forgiven for thinking that high-profile instrumental soloists prefer to “work alone.” On occasion, however, the stars align, and these extraordinary artists form unique collaborations to the enjoyment of all. We are pleased to welcome to our stage violinist Anne Akiko Meyers and classical guitarist Jason Vieaux for a special duo performance. Cutting-edge works by Philip Glass and Arturo Marquez weave together with music by Stravinsky and Piazzolla to create an international tapestry. The program also features a new piece by recent Kennedy Center Composer-in-Residence Mason Bates, of whom Ms. Meyers, famed for her impressive body of commissioned works, is a frequent muse. Together with Mr. Vieaux, called by NPR “perhaps the most precise and soulful classical guitarist of his generation,” this duo promises to ignite the mind and inspire the heart. |

What is more operatic than the God of Love saving the world or a one-eyed warrior queen standing up for her people and fighting against oppression. Maryland Opera’s newest initiative, New Voices in Opera, brings fresh operatic works to the stage. The evening features a double bill of new works: Oshun by B.E. Boykin tells the story of the gods in the pantheon of the Ifa religion as they seek to bring rain to the lands of their worshippers. Kandake by Timothy Amukele recounts the trials of the one-eyed warrior queen, Amanirenas, as she fights to repel the Romans and protect her people. Both works feature a libretto by Jarrod Lee. These creators all have a strong connection to our performing community here in the greater Baltimore area. The performance will also include a mini recital with students from Morgan State and Towson Universities performing selections by African American composers. |
