Delaware Valley Opera Co, founded in 1979, is a 501C group that serves the greater Philadelphia area.
Originally incorporated as the Delaware Valley Lyric Opera Guild, DVOC was started in 1979. The intention of its founders was to offer a stepping stone for singers, providing training and education through exposure to all facets of operatic production, and performance opportunities in a variety of operas. During the first year, two operas and a concert were produced at various Center City locations while a permanent space was sought.
In 1981, the Company discovered the Hermitage Mansion, one of Philadelphia's historic Fairmount Park homes, and began to lease it from the City. A year later, an outdoor stage was built in the natural amphitheater behind the Mansion and became the Paul D. Osimo Outdoor Theatre. The Mansion served as the Company's administrative base, rehearsal space, costume and scenery storage site, and the location for its Winter Concert Series in the living room. The mansion is no longer used by DVOC. The company has performed in several venues in the Philadelphia area since leaving the mansion in 2008. Currently DVOC performs at the Venice Island Performing Arts and Recreation Center in Manayunk.
The primary focus of the Company is its Summer Festival - three operatic productions in June, July and August. During its 25 years of existence, the Company has performed over 110 performances and presented more than 55 operas.
