Opera Season 2026 - Teatro Regio di Parma

The curtain will rise on January 23, 2026, with Orpheus and Eurydice by Christoph Willibald Gluck—an emotional and mythical opera that opens the new season, inviting the audience into a world where passion defies fate.

The new season presents iconic titles united by a common thread: inner conflict, pushed to its limits by the overwhelming power of passion.
A clash between law and desire in Orpheus and Eurydice, between impulsiveness and noble self-restraint in Norma, and between vice and virtue in Manon Lescaut.
