Shreveport Opera prides itself on producing music and theatre in a fiscally responsible way – bringing world-class talent to the Ark-La-Tex while simultaneously living within our means. Those means include ticket sales, grants, and the support of our community. Opera is, however, an expensive art form to produce, and many would be surprised to learn that ticket sales only amount to around 25% of an opera company's operating budget. We thrive only with the continued financial support of the individuals, foundations, and corporations.

As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization (Tax ID# 72-6021455), Shreveport Opera is operating in the black. We are growing our future audience through special events, community outreach, and by exposing students in the Ark-La-Tex through the Shreveport Opera Xpress (or "SOX") program.
