Early productions were staged at a variety of locations, but in recent years the company’s productions have been performed at Clowes Memorial Hall. In addition the company now has a permanent home in the Basile Opera Center at 40th and Pennsylvania Streets. John Pickett joined the company in 1990 in charge of development and marketing.

The company’s educational outreach program, the Indianapolis Opera Ensemble, was created in 1993. The company’s nationally acclaimed “Music! Words!
