From today’s piano dress of Billy Budd San Francisco Opera. This is a production that pulls you all the way in. You will feel onboard the HMS Indomitable and in the middle of the knife edge tension of 18th century seafaring. It’s breathtaking.
Catch your first glimpse at our new Billy Budd — baritone John Chest! For the first time in a decade, John returns to the San Francisco, this time making his company debut in Benjamin Britten's masterpiece, #BillyBuddSF. See him onstage starting Sept. 7! sfopera.com/billybudd
The San Francisco War Memorial Performing Arts Center literally shaking with energy in the sitzprobe of San Francisco Opera Billy Budd. The intensity of this piece is thunderous. Six percussionists plus four onstage drummers gives you an indication of what’s in store as the HMS Indomitable prepares for battle.
Tonight, set sail on enemy waters — not knowing if the bigger threat is aboard your very ship. It's opening night for Benjamin Britten's masterpiece "Billy Budd," with an all-star cast featuring John Chest, William Burden, and @vanhorncvh. Don't miss it! sfopera.com/billybudd
Our two leading men of September, John Chest and Pene Pati, are taking a break offstage at #SFOperaInThePark. Catch them at the War Memorial Opera House in two must-see productions: “Billy Budd” and “Romeo and Juliet!”

It’s “Billy Budd’s” final day on our stage — so naturally, we’re sharing an excerpt of John Chest singing about Billy Budd’s final day! You still have time to see what the San Francisco Chronicle calls “the opera of 2019.” But hurry! Last show is at 2 p.m. sfopera.com/2019-20-season…
