What is it?
Access is a program offered by the Detroit Opera House to make opera and dance more affordable and engaging for young professionals and students, ages 18-45.
Access ticket-holders receive special access to discounted main floor seats to select opera and dance productions. Access tickets also include a complimentary drink at an exclusive post-performance reception, where you can mingle with your peers and often even meet members of the cast!
In its short two-season existence, Access events have already drawn nearly 2,000 students and young professionals from all over metro Detroit to experience Michigan Opera Theatre’s world-class performances.
