More than 14,000 audience members view a Guild production each year and co-productions with the Clay Center enable another 2,400 students to attend a production.

The Charleston Light Opera Guild owns and maintains its own theatre and workshop where some summer productions are held, while other productions are presented at the Charleston Coliseum and Convention Center Little Theater and the Clay Center Maier Performance Hall.

The Charleston Light Opera Guild credits many working professionals in theatre, music, dance, film, television and production among its alumni. These include Jennifer Garner, Kathy Mattea, Ann Magnuson, Joe Chrest, and Rebecca Robbins.
