Specialties
Kentucky Opera brings you all-live stage productions filled with remarkable voices, an outstanding orchestra, enthralling theatre, and captivating dance — all of the art forms working together to tell a story.
History
Established in 1952.
Kentucky Opera was founded in 1952 by Moritz von Bomhard and designated the State Opera of Kentucky in 1982. Operas were presented in the Columbia Auditorium until 1964 when they moved to the Brown Theatre. Today all operas are performed at the Brown Theatre. The 2014 season, Repertoire Reimagined, is a series of bold, gutsy and stirring opera productions that have rarely been seen on the Louisville stage.
