Opera-Lytes can outfit policemen, pirates, sailors, peasants, aristocrats, gondoliers, biblical and medieval styles, much of the Victorian era, and some periods of the 20th century. Inventory is constantly mended, enriched and crafted. Visit the website’s Costume Collection page for information on costumes available for rental. Some Opera-Lytes members offer their time and talents in other ways outside of singing, acting and costuming. Since the company’s very first production in 1994 and for nearly 20 years, Sharon and Dave Szczudlik designed and built sets for Opera-Lytes, notably including a sizable 6-panel backdrop that Sharon painted for HMS Pinafore. “Every show, when we did it, we did it great,” said Dave, retired Opera-Lytes member.
