OPERA San Antonio has announced a citywide community production of “The Falling and the Rising” this February.

The production, which takes place from Feb. 2-7, 2027, will be conducted by Tyson Deaton  and directed by E. Loren Meeker. Tess Altiveros sings Soldier, with Stephanie Doche as Toledo, Keenan McCarter as Homecoming Soldier and Thomas Cannon as Colonel. The Orchestra San Antonio and the 323d Army Band will perform together.

The production is part of a “Community Impact Series” created with and for San Antonio’s military community.

Performances will be held at four military-connected venues including VFW Post 76, Boeing Center at Tech Port, Brooke Army Medical Center, and Fort Sam Houston Theatre.

“The Falling and the Rising is not simply an opera about military service—it is a project built from military voices,” said Meeker, who is also the company’s executive director, per an official press release.
