BE PART OF OUR SHOWS!
Don’t sing but still want to be part of the action? Consider becoming an extra in the opera, what we call supernumeraries, or “supers” for short. Supers are just like extras in the movies — you can be a general character like a guard or a townsperson, or have a very specific function in the show. Either way, no speaking (or singing!) is required, just a willingness to be on stage! Please stay tuned for shows requiring supernumeraries for our 2026/27 season.
