Opera Edwardsville returns to the Historic Wildey!

This calls for a toast!
A champagne toast will be hosted for all by OE’s 2024 season sponsors and donors, immediately following the performance. All ticket holders are welcome to meet-and-greet the artists and raise a glass in the third floor event space attached to the Wildey Theatre.
Lead season sponsorship comes from Stifel, the City of Edwardsville, and an anonymous donor. Presenting sponsorship comes from Lewis Rice, the Rotary Club of Edwardsville, and the Schmidt and Barton Family Fund. Patron sponsorship comes from Clementine's, Carrollton Bank and Irwin Chapel.
