About us

Florida Grand Opera (FGO), America’s seventh-oldest opera company, has served the communities of Miami-Dade and Broward Counties since its founding as the Opera Guild of Greater Miami by Arturo di Filippi in 1941. Today, under the leadership of General Director and CEO Susan T. Danis, Florida Grand Opera (FGO) is one of the Southeast’s most vibrant performing arts organizations, presenting a mainstage season of inspiring artistic depth and breadth. Over the past year, the FGO has received outstanding reviews from Opera News, Opera UK, Opera Canada, Opera Now, and a myriad of other opera publications. Serving two substantial regional patron bases, the FGO performs at major theaters in both locations: the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts Ziff Ballet Opera House in Miami, and the Broward Center for the Performing Arts Au-Rene Theatre in Fort Lauderdale.
