Our Mission

Spotlight on Opera enriches our community with accessible, meaningful, and transformative opera education and performances. We are committed to making “Opera for Everybody.”

Who We Are

Spotlight on Opera was founded in 2007 by Executive Director Cindy Sadler and is currently based in the Hurley School of Music on the campus of Centenary College of Louisiana in Shreveport. Due to COVID, both our 2020 and 2021 seasons are virtual. Each summer we offer a five-week intensive program of study, including daily classes in a wide variety of career-related topics, two mainstage operas, a touring children's opera, opera scenes, and concerts. In 2021 we are partnering with Anne Arundel County Public Schools in Pennsylvania to provide virtual internships for Performing Arts Academy high school students. What sets Spotlight apart from other opera training programs is that we: - have no upper age limit - focus on artistic entrepreneurship and career training as much as we do performance - have a strong commitment to community partnerships and restorative creative development in the community, with a special focus on providing opportunities for BIPOC AAPI. We believe that art belongs to everybody and are dedicated to sharing the opportunity to experience opera, create opera, and hear opera that reflects the identity and values of the listener.
