Loading…don’t miss a moment of Opera Carolina!
Experience elegance and storytelling you can only get at Opera Carolina. Whether you’re a long-time fan or brand new to the imaginative world of Opera, this season brings classical music culture closer to the heart of the Carolinas.
Pagliacci with Cavalleria Rusticana October 28, 29 & November 2, 2023
Taken from newspaper headlines, Cavalleria Rusticana and Pagliacci are two tragic tales of love, infidelity, and betrayal juxtaposing in the lives of ordinary people — emotionally intense, passionate, and dramatic.
Madame Butterfly
Jan. 25, 27 & 28, 2024
One of opera’s most enduring stories of love and cultural bias, Puccini’s moving score follows the true, tragic story of Cio-cio san, a young Japanese girl who falls in love with an American naval officer with devastating consequences.
Samson and Delilah
April 18, 20 & 21, 2024
From Chapter 16 of the Book of Judges, this Biblical drama of seduction and betrayal comes to life in a lavish grand opera. Samson, the leader of the Israelites, can be conquered by none – except the Philistine beauty Delilah – servant of the High Priest of Baal.
Repertoire from 1948 to Present
Opera Carolina has served the Carolinas for more than 72 years by presenting quality, Grand Opera to the Charlotte community.

PLAN YOUR VISIT
In normal times, Opera Carolina performs in Charlotte's premiere venues, the Belk and Knight Theaters, in the heart of center city Charlotte. The pandemic hasn’t stopped us from performing: It’s just expanded our venues.
Public health and the safety of our patrons, staff and artists is our top priority. We will continue to innovate and think creatively about ways to keep you engaged and entertained while also keeping you safe.
This season, we’re bringing opera directly to you.
