Photo by Jon Silla. LEFT: Nina Yoshida Nelsen, Ji Hyun Jang and Mihoko Kinoshita in Houston Grand Opera’s production of The Memory Stone by Marty Regan and Kenny Fries. Photo by Felix Sanchez. CONCEPT AND DESIGN FOR ANNUAL REPORT BY THE LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN Since its inception OPERA America has existed as a community of like-minded individuals committed to the artistic and financial strength of the field. This past year, our definition of community expanded: our conference, held in Vancouver, affirmed our commitment to all of North America, while our growing partnership with Opera Europa continued to bridge the continents through our shared dedication to an art form that knows no borders. Most profoundly, however, the opening of the National Opera Center in New York has created a new center for our community, a tangible space where individual and company members can gather for auditions, recitals and professional learning programs. The center’s technology capabilities enable us to share these offerings globally, even as its flexible amenities enable us to share our love for opera locally. We are delighted to present our global, national and local achievements of the past year through this Annual Report. To our members we offer gratitude for your support of these achievements.

On the left, a block of apartment buildings glow gold in the sun. On the right, private houses. Some trees, some leaves falling.

  • Outside Mullingar by John Patrick Shanley
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Dafina McMillan February 5, 2014 [email protected] 212-609-5955 New from TCG Books: Outside Mullingar by John Patrick Shanley NEW YORK, NY – Theatre Communications Group (TCG) is pleased to announce the publication of John Patrick Shanley’s Outside Mullingar, a compassionate and delightful romantic comedy from the Pulitzer Prize, Tony Award and Oscar-winning author of Doubt. The play is currently enjoying its world premiere, helmed by the Tony Award-winning director, Doug Hughes, at Manhattan Theatre Club, starring Debra Messing and Brían F. O’Byrne. “In the work of John Patrick Shanley, the truth is as charming as it is painful, reality as touched with magic as it is factual and existence as absolute as it is illusory.” — BOMB magazine Outside Mullingar tells the romance of Anthony and Rosemary, neighbors in rural Ireland who are nearing their middle years. It is by turns poetic, uplifting, dark and funny as hell. Anthony is an introverted farmer and Rosemary is the woman who vows to have him at all costs. When Anthony’s father threatens to disinherit his son, Rosemary steps into the middle of a land feud and family eccentricities beyond what one might imagine. On the brink of romantic catastrophe, this one-of-a-kind Irish heroine fights against time and mortality in hopes of securing her dream of love. “Mr. Shanley’s finest work since Doubt…give[s] such consistent pleasure.” — New York Times John Patrick Shanley’s plays include Danny and the Deep Blue Sea, Savage in Limbo and Dirty Story.

  • Outside Mullingar by John Patrick Shanley Directed by Randall Arney Featuring Jessica Collins, Jarlath Conroy, Dan Donohue and Robin Pearson Rose
    MEDIA CONTACT: Katy Sweet & Associates [email protected]/310.479.2333 OUTSIDE MULLINGAR BY JOHN PATRICK SHANLEY DIRECTED BY RANDALL ARNEY FEATURING JESSICA COLLINS, JARLATH CONROY, DAN DONOHUE AND ROBIN PEARSON ROSE NOVEMBER 10 TO DECEMBER 20, 2015 (OPENING NIGHT IS NOVEMBER 18) IN THE GIL CATES THEATER AT THE GEFFEN PLAYHOUSE LOS ANGELES, CA (October 19, 2015) Geffen Playhouse has announced the cast for Outside Mullingar, John Patrick Shanley’s Tony-nominated play. The cast includes Jessica Collins as Rosemary, Jarlath Conroy as Tony, Dan Donohue as Anthony and Robin Pearson Rose as Aoife. It is directed by Geffen Playhouse Artistic Director Randall Arney. Outside Mullingar runs November 10 through December 20, 2015 (opening night is November 18) in the Gil Cates Theater at the Geffen Playhouse. Family farms, feuds and fences have separated neighbors Rosemary and Anthony since childhood. These hopeless singletons will need to overcome these obstacles and their own romantic fears to find happiness. Full of dry humor and poetic prose, John Patrick Shanley’s tender-hearted portrayal reminds us it’s never too late to take a chance on love. Charles Isherwood said in The New York Times, “Shanley’s finest work since Doubt.” In The Hollywood Reporter, David Rooney said, “A tender paen to rural life, to the Irish spirit and to the enduring belief that love will find a way.” Outside Mullingar was a recipient of the 2014 Edgerton Foundation New American Play Award. The author of more than 23 plays, including 80 productions in North America, John Patrick Shanley won the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for his play, Doubt, and an Oscar for his screenplay, Moonstruck.
