All three performances of "The Barber of Seville" were completely sold-out (700+ total attendees), and all who wanted to attend were able to due in part to the 155 free tickets that were made available to Park City Library patrons to the show in Santy Auditorium. Demand was so high that these were fully reserved two weeks before the performance. Discounted student, senior, and military tickets were also available. In total, 35 singers, instrumentalists, directors, conductors, theater technicians, and others were hired in help bring this production to life. "The Barber of Seville" was the first full operatic production in Park City in over 20 years, and the reception from the community indicates that opera will have a home in Park City for years to come. While Summit County has a flourishing arts scene, it is underserved in terms of classical music, especially vocal classical music. The closest professional opera companies active in the summer are hours away, so Park City Operas summer production represents a unique, local musical opportunity. 19084 16215 Park City Opera's Concert Series programming includes performances, recitals, lectures and other events hosted in a variety of venues and is specifically designed for our community, providing an important and desired cultural experience to audiences while also supporting the local economy by attracting visitors and engaging local artists. For audiences, we are diversifying the cultural landscape of our community in collaboration with existing organizations like the Gallery Association, Mountain Town Music, and the Park City Library. For local businesses, we are inviting a new constituency of visitors to Park City: classical music-lovers who travel to see their favorite singers or operas live. For artists, we are creating positive performance opportunities where there previously were none. From November 2024 to October 2025, we produced 20 Concert Series events, the majority of which were free and open to the public. We believed we reached close to 1500 audience members through this program and created dozens of opportunities for singers and instrumentalists. 101355 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 5 5 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true true true false UT X Elisabeth L Wangermann 2143267411 1717 Arts Plz Ste 2104 Dallas TX 75201 Neylan McBaine Director 0.20 0.00 X 0 0 0 Richard Lalli Director 0.20 0.00 X 0 0 0 Susanne Mentzer Director 0.20 0.00 X 0 0 0 Diane Zack Director 0.20 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elisabeth L Wangermann Director of Development, Co-founder 20.00 0.00 X 5325 0 0 Amy Englebrecht Director 0.20 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lena Goldstein Executive Director, Co-founder 20.00 0.00 X 6986 0 0 Benjamin Beckman Artistic Director, Co-founder 20.00 0.00 X 5118 0 0 17429 0 0 0 false false false 0 0 0 0 0 26520 219399 0 245919 Mainstage Productions 38403 38403 Concert Series 15990 15990 2955 2955 57348 303267 57348 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 17429 0 17429 0 0 0 0 0 55299 52335 2964 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4732 0 4732 0 737 0 737 7004 7004 29000 29000 7610 7610 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Audience Experience Expenses 4055 4055 Theatrical Materials 8354 8354 0 0 134220 101354 32866 0 27525 213514 0 0 14988 2850 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2692 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 42513 216364 0 0 0 0 0 4804 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4804 X 42513 205860 0 5700 42513 211560 42513 216364 169047 0 X false false X 0 0 0 0 37798 245919 283717 4759 57348 62107 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 42557 303267 345824 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 345824 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 42557 303267 345824 X 1.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Part VI, Line 11b This Form 990 was prepared by the Director of Development, with help from the Executive Director and Artistic Director.
