Our season highlights our commitment to opera supporting diversity and inclusion. We started in October, Hispanic Heritage month, with the Spanish production of La Medium at Fort Worth's historic northside venue, Rose Marine Theater. In February, we produced dwb (Driving While Black), showcasing this opera at both the Texas Christian University Van Cliburn Hall and the Kimball Art Museum Piano Pavillion. We were thrilled to return to Fort Worth's majestic Bass Performance Hall for a semi-staged production of the classic opera La Boheme. We ended our season in celebration of Juneteenth, inviting Morris Robinson to perform at the Texas Christian University Van Cliburn Hall. 192422 0 0 The Fort Worth Opera Studio, founded in 2002, includes four young Lesley Artists chosen each year from national auditions to be in residence with Fort Worth Opera in order to continue their training as they prepare for professional careers.
