What Each Production Offers
Hansel and Gretel — Oct. 21, 2026
The season opens with a single October performance of this familiar fairy-tale opera at the Opera Center.
A Red, White, & Blue Christmas: Winter Concert — Nov. 7, 2026
A one-night winter concert program, also at the Opera Center. This is a concert format rather than a fully staged opera, which makes it a lower-commitment option if you are new to the company.
The Game of Love (Cosi fan Tutte) — Dec. 11–13, 2026
Mozart's Cosi fan Tutte, presented under the title The Game of Love, gets a three-day run in December. Multiple dates give you flexibility if the opening night does not work for you.
La Boheme — March 5 & 7, 2027
Puccini's La Boheme is the only production in this listing held at the Broome Forum Theatre rather than the Opera Center. Note the venue change when planning parking and arrival, and note that this run has two performances rather than a full weekend.
Pocket Opera Project (POP) — April 24, 2027
The season closes with the Pocket Opera Project at the Opera Center, a smaller-scale presentation format.
Other Dates Worth Knowing
The site also lists several non-season events:
- Sept. 12, 2026 — two entries at the Tri-Cities Opera Center marked "More Info" rather than "Buy Tickets"
- Aug. 28, 2026 — four entries at Little Italy in Endicott, also "More Info"
Because these use a different link label, treat them as informational or community events rather than standard ticketed productions until you check the individual pages.
Before You Buy
- Confirm the venue. Four of the five productions are at the Tri-Cities Opera Center; La Boheme is at the Broome Forum Theatre.
- Check the date range. The season spans roughly six months, so a subscription-style plan across all five shows would require multiple trips between October and April.
- Use the phone line if the site fails. The company posted a notice that it is experiencing email technical difficulties and asks patrons to reach the box office by phone at 607-772-0400 or via Facebook Messenger instead.
- Ticketing policies apply. The site maintains a separate Ticketing Policies page, so review it for exchange, refund, or accessibility details before completing a purchase.
If you only want one night out, the December run of The Game of Love and the two March dates of La Boheme offer the most scheduling flexibility. If you want the full arc of the season, plan around the October opener and the April closer.
