Lyric Opera Guild Board 2009 Backstage Tours

Wardrobe Department, Wigs & Make-up Department, Scenery Handling Facility, Armory Room, Stars' Dressing Rooms, Props Room, Orchestra Pit, Main Stage, and more!

Visit the stars' dressing rooms and hear stories of how opera greats such as Placido Domingo and Catherine Malfitano prepare for their performances. Imagine yourself as Sir Andrew Davis when you ascend the stairs into the orchestra pit; or as superstar soprano Renee Fleming when you walk onto the main-stage and face the lavish auditorium. Satisfy your opera curiosity or fulfill your opera fantasies by taking a Lyric Opera Backstage Tour.

Lunch
Before or after your tour, your group may wish to enjoy a light box lunch served in the Daniel F. and Ada L. Rice Grand Foyer. Order either a vegetarian or a chicken selection. Both options include fresh fruit, a dessert, and coffee tea or soda. Lunches are $10.00 each.

Premium Tours
The "creme de la creme" of opera tours. For $150.00 per person, guests will enjoy a private tour in groups of 10. Premium Tours will depart every 10 minutes between 11:00 am and 11:20 am. Following your tour, you will be treated to a gourmet lunch in the Malott Room, where you will dine with a Lyric Opera insider. Guests will receive complimentary valet parking, a complimentary photograph on Lyric Opera's main-stage, and a parting gift, compliments of Lyric Opera's Guild Board of Directors.
