Sherlock Holmes fans are sure to enjoy the OLO's production of Red Mill! The renowned detective is summoned to locate a missing woman on the eve of her wedding, but when two men arrive purporting to be Holmes and Dr. Watson, nothing is quite as it seems.

What makes the OLO a one-of-a-kind experience? Our artists. Designers are encouraged to bring their own lens to period and style, so tradition lives in the material—not in re-creating an original production image. #olo2026 #ohiolightopera #collegeofwooster

Ohio Light Opera’s 2026 season is a carefully crafted journey through the best of lyric theater. Each summer, Artistic Director Steven Daigle selects a repertory that balances audience favorites with new discoveries. #olo2026 #ohiolightopera #collegeofwooster

Did you know The Yeomen of the Guard is one of Gilbert & Sullivan’s most dramatic works, and the only one where someone meets a tragic demise? Step into the Tower of London this summer at the OLO! #olo2026 #ohiolightopera #collegeofwooster

Meet Wilson Southerland, Associate Music Director! If you’ve seen an OLO production this season, you’ve likely felt Wilson’s musical touch. A world-traveling conductor, pianist, and coach, Wilson has worked with the North Carolina Opera, Opera Africa, and The New Israeli Opera.

There’s nothing “nosebleed” about our seats. Every spot in Freedlander Theatre offers a perfect view—and perfect acoustics—to soak in the sparkle of operetta. #olo2026 #ohiolightopera #collegeofwooster

The Boys from Syracuse takes The Comedy of Errors and layers in lush harmonies, danceable rhythms, and Rodgers & Hart wordplay, turning classic farce into a vintage musical gem. Don’t miss your opportunity to see this deep-cut favorite at the OLO!

“You’ve gotta have heart”…and a good pair of cleats. Damn Yankees is this summer’s big dance-and-baseball musical, swinging for the fences with choreography, comedy, and one very catchy deal with the devil. #olo2026 #ohiolightopera #collegeofwooster

Every fully staged, fully orchestrated production at OLO is powered in part by donors who believe that live theater belongs in Wooster every summer.
If OLO has ever made you laugh, cry, or hum all the way home, consider a gift at ohiolightopera.org.

The Red Mill proves Victor Herbert knew how to build a set list and a set. The original production famously featured a working windmill on stage—an old-school Broadway spectacle at its finest. ohiolightopera.org/box-offic… #olo2026 #ohiolightopera #collegeofwooster

Sometimes, you need a getaway that feels like a breath of fresh air. In Wayne County, you can catch a world-class OLO performance, then, just minutes later, find yourself petting a goat at a farm or wandering a scenic country trail. ohiolightopera.org/about/pla…

From a dream of a Gilbert & Sullivan troupe to a festival that’s produced well over 140 titles, OLO has spent decades proving that operetta and classic musicals are absolutely not museum pieces. They’re living, laughing, high-kicking theatre.

Dust off your vowels, Wooster: My Fair Lady is coming, and Eliza Doolittle is ready to turn “loverly” into a lifestyle. Lerner & Loewe spun Shaw’s Pygmalion into one of Broadway’s most beloved hits, and it’s headed straight for Freedlander Theatre!
