The Newberry Opera Houses' Business Manager, Leslie Stillwell joined the team in January 2019. "I wasn’t sure what to expect from the Entertainment Industry. I knew that although I had a Financial Background handling the finances here would be different", she said. A typical season at The Opera House runs July 1 through June 30, with the first performance typically in the month of August.
