The Artistic Home Of:
Show-Me Opera
The MU School of Music’s Show-Me Opera company consists of performers involved in the opera workshop and opera production classes. The courses are open to undergraduate and graduate students by audition and focus on the study, preparation, and performance of selected operatic or musical theatre works in staged or concert versions. Show-Me Opera performs a variety of opera and musical scenes programs each semester and presents a full opera production in the spring. In 2003, MU commissioned a new dramatic musical work that was premiered by Show-Me Opera. Corps of Discovery, A Musical Journey, a three-act opera by Michael Ching and Hugh Moffatt, commemorates the expedition of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark and celebrates the bicentennial of their journey. Show-Me Opera is under the direction of Christine Seitz.
