The Ohio Light Opera
For thirty-four years, The Ohio Light Opera has dedicated itself to the exploration and execution of the best of traditional operetta. Founded by Dr. James Stuart as a Gilbert and Sullivan repertory summer festival, the company has grown to encompass all forms of the light opera canon. This includes the complete Gilbert and Sullivan repertoire, as well as the treasures from the Viennese, French, Hungarian, German, and American repertoire. Along with this unique mission, the company also reconstructs and produces those rare operetta titles of artistic value that were once popular in their own time but have long since been forgotten. The historical performance practices of each work's premiere are delicately balanced with a state of the art theater and engaging and entertaining performance values. Each summer, seven or eight titles are presented in a revolving format for sixty-seven performances over a nine-week period. Nearly 20,000 patrons see productions in the company's intimate Freedlander Theatre. Over 100 company members from around the United States are selected each year to become a part of our residency company.
