  About the Opera House Co.Under the artistic direction of David F. Wicks, Jr., of Dahlgren, the Opera House Co. was a three year proposal that turned into reality. Along with Opera House Co. executive producer, Aisha Mitchell, the two began a two-month endeavor to realize a dream. With the opening of Gilbert and Sullivan’s Pirates of Penzance in May of 2007 and its successful close, a full season was in order. David and Aisha wish to see the tiny theatre company flourish in years to come. They feel that theatre stimulates, celebrates and enhances the understanding of ourselves and of others through the shared experience of live theatre. There is nothing like standing in front of a live audience and sharing with them the hard work and love that goes into a theatrical production. The Opera House Co. wishes to include all of the communities in Southern Illinois, to share the theatre experience with anyone willing to freely suspend reality for an evening, and to introduce the art of theatre to the children in our communities. The Opera House Co. is forever grateful to the beautiful City of Sesser for allowing them to call the Historic Opera House home, and for giving them the financial support to keep the theatre alive.
For ticket or audition information or to volunteer please contact Producer, Aisha Mitchell. Information on ticket prices and season subscriptions will be made available in the near future.
