Dear Friends of The O’Shaughnessy:

We are so excited to share that, for the first time in too long, our doors are open to our valued audiences!

Though the stages were dark, plenty has been going on backstage in anticipation of this time. All of us, from the ticket office staff to the crew, believe you will share our enthusiasm for a season that reflects the excellent reputation The O’Shaughnessy has built in our thriving arts community over the past half-century.

We hope you know how much we all have appreciated your support during this difficult time. It was not easy, but knowing that many of our artists made the most of their time observing and processing what it meant for them and their artistic expressions, we can all agree that we have never needed this stage more than we do in the season ahead.

Here, we offer you a peek at what we’ve been working on for the season — you will find perennial favorites like Nutcracker performances, as well as a sampling of the marvelously talented Twin Cities and internationally acclaimed artists.

Unchanged this year is our commitment to and focus on women-centered programming through the Women of Substance series, which informs our forward-facing outlook, “Celebrating Women Who Lead and Influence in the Arts and Ideas!”

We have a page with information about our latest health and safety considerations for our patrons on the website. Visit oshag.stkate.edu/ covid-19-faqs. If you can’t find the answer to your question there, please don’t hesitate to call our Ticket Office at 651-690-6700.

We look forward to seeing you at a performance soon!

The O’Shaughnessy Team
