Sabrina Palladino, soprano/director of stage and screen, studied acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute before entering television commercial production and a career behind the camera, first as a producer and then a director. Sabrina directed Opera Theatre of Montclair's first production, Verdi's Nabucco. About her recent performance as Puccini's Manon Lescaut, BrooklynDiscovery.com said:  "Her soprano, which has delicacy, color and grace, commands intimacy and pathos. Ms. Palladino’s impeccable diction and vivid acting brought Manon’s plight to one and all. Ms. Palladino’s interpretation was unforgettable. It simply stays with you in memory and won’t let go."
Mia Riker-Norrie founded Opera Theatre of Montclair with the mission of providing professional opportunities for young or underutilized singers and orchestral musicians, practicing social justice through arts accessibility with low ticket prices and intimate productions, and creating interactive educational productions to inspire a love of opera in children. OTM is the 2018 Winner of the JerseyArts.com People's Choice Award as New Jersey's Favorite Opera Company.  Mia was recently named a winner of the first AC2 Awards by 
2018 Montclair Design Week. As a soprano, she has received praise from 
Opera News and The New York Times.

This is the way all opera should be: fun, formal (well, semi-), gorgeous,
glorious. This is how children should first experience it: there’s no pressure.


Gwen Orel, The Montclair Local

I just wanted to grab a moment to congratulate you on such a splendid production. It's amazing to think it is the company's premiere production! To assemble a cast and orchestra and conductor on that level is so impressive.

Compliments and thanks to the Opera Theatre of Montclair for their delightful production of Acis and Galatea, which we went to last night. It was very well-sung and acted, and the production was imaginative. (Who needs a big budget?) And the music is GLORIOUS. Where else could I have heard a Lupophone and a Tenoroon in the same place? If you've got time today or tonight, I highly recommend.
