Virginia Opera is a professional opera company that stages full productions of classic and contemporary operas. Families attending can expect live singing, orchestral music, and theatrical storytelling on a grand scale. Opera combines beautiful music with visual spectacle—elaborate sets, costumes, and dramatic performances. It's a chance to experience this historic art form in an elegant theater setting. Note that opera can run several hours, so families should consider whether their children have the attention span for a lengthy performance.
