Let’s go to hell! Greek mythology has never been the same since Offenbach got through with it. Sung in a witty English version by Buck Ross, we start the year off with a wild, naughty, comic romp that concludes with an infernal can-can!

Winter Repertory
by Daniel Catán
Feel the heat of the jungle as a riverboat travels up the Amazon and takes its passengers on a mysterious journey deep into the soul. Audiences continue to clamor for this lush, gorgeously sensual music with echoes of Puccini and Debussy that will leave you spellbound in wonder. Sung in the original Spanish.

Spring Opera
by Ricky Ian Gordon
Set off with the Joad family down Route 66 to find work in the golden land of California. This American epic just premiered in 2007 to ecstatic reviews and audience accolades. The Grapes of Wrath is a moving, heart-wrenching saga that celebrates the triumph of the human spirit. We are honored to be the first university production of this great work and it will be an experience you will talk about for years to come. Sung in English. Houston premiere!
