2024-2025 Season
Mozart in the Museum – November 14, 16, and 17, 2024
Immersive. Imaginative. Opera like you’ve never seen it.
Two rival socialites duke it out to see who can throw the better gala at the Anchorage Museum. Throw in a pair of conniving caterers, a catty ladder-climber, and a glittering lineup of guests (YOU!) and, well… you have one heck of a party! You are cordially invited to an immersive theatre experience where you get to follow the action from gallery to gallery around the Anchorage Museum – and maybe even interact with the stars. Funny. Fabulous. Opera.

When his boat finally sails in, he arrives with his new wife, and Cio-Cio San’s world is irreparably shattered. Join Anchorage Opera for the unforgettable experience of one of the greatest operas ever written.
