History

Led by Rahway resident Joseph Mayon, Founder & Artistic Director, New Jersey Opera Theater works in partnership with UCPAC to provide the community with state-of-the-art shows and world class performances that truly make an impact. Through mentorship, local high school and college students have the opportunity to join these professional musicians in the orchestra, chorus, or as understudies for lead roles.
