Stetson University School of Music will present Hansel and Gretel in a fully staged production created in collaboration with Opera Orlando.
Performances will take place at 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 20, and 3 p.m. Sunday, March 22, at the DeLand High School Auditorium, 800 N. Hill Ave., DeLand.
Opera Orlando collaborates with Stetson University on several initiatives, including the design and construction of the sets and props for this production. The organizations also partner with Opera Orlando’s Apprentice Artist Program, which provides Stetson voice majors with professional, onstage experience in the opera industry while earning academic credit.
As part of that broader collaboration, two Stetson students in the cast, soprano Alyssa Pimentel and tenor Evan Martinez, are also members of Opera Orlando’s 2025-26 Apprentice Artists Program.
The production is directed by Olivia Yokers, DMA, and conducted by Anthony Hose. Kristie Born, DMA, will serve as musical coach, with the Stetson University Symphony Orchestra performing the score.
Prices are $15 for general admission, $5 for youth ages 13-17 or college students with ID, and free with a Stetson ID.
