Delaware Valley Opera

On this episode of Curtain Call, host Tom Candela sits down with Suzann Dvorken, President of the Delaware Valley Opera, to celebrate their 2021 milestone—the company’s acquisition of its very own permanent home: the Delaware Valley Opera Center in Lake Huntington, NY. Together, they explore the company’s 35-year journey, its future plans for year-round performances, and what this new space means for the region’s cultural landscape. The episode also features lively interviews with cast and audience members at a recent performance of Knightly News, a whimsical, one-act children’s opera by Jonathan Stinson that blends fairy tale favorites with newsroom flair and operatic fun.
