Wilmington Concert Opera, the minority and women run opera company of Delaware, is continuing their tenth anniversary season Strong Women, following the successful production of Loksi’ Shaali’, which was a featured opera at the 2026 Opera America Conference. WCO is pleased to announce a collaboration with the Philadelphia based company Opera Fresca for their Fall 2026 opera, Carmen by Georges Bizet, with libretto by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy. One of the most popular operas in the canon, Wilmington Concert Opera and Opera Fresca will be performing this work in the original French with sung recitative and English supertitles. These performances will be semi-staged and will have two weekends of performances, the first in Delaware, and the second in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.
