Our Mission
This annual spectacular production by UK students and the best and brightest talent in Central Kentucky has been delighting summertime audiences for over 30 years.
The grand tradition of Grand Night features the singing and dancing to the best of Broadway, from today and yesterday.
June 13 - 22, 2025
UK Opera Theatre’s annual It’s a Grand Night for Singing! is a popular musical revue featuring the best of Broadway’s past and present, starring more than 100 UK Opera Theatre and community performers. In 2017, we celebrated the 25th anniversary of Grand Night and won an Emmy for the KET broadcast of the production.
What can you expect from Grand Night? A little of everything! From large dance numbers to heartfelt solos to a duet from Everett and Alicia Helm McCorvey. And, of course, a much-anticipated piano medley from Tedrin Blair Lindsay.
