Supernumeraries

Supernumeraries (folks playing walk-on, non-singing roles, affectionately known as “supers” in the trade) are often needed for our opera productions. What better way to experience an opera than to be in it? Requirements for supers are usually established by the stage director about three months before the performance. If you are interested in the chance to really be a part of the action, email , West Bay Opera’s Production Manager.
