DARLENE MARCOS SHILEY
San Diego Opera’s Board of Directors, staff and artists are proud to celebrate Darlene Marcos Shiley as the Lead Production Sponsor for our production of Tosca.
Darlene has been a dedicated supporter of San Diego Opera for more than three decades. This support has brought some of the world’s greatest opera productions to life on the stage in San Diego ranging from new works like Jake Heggie’s Great Scott to timeless classics like Puccini’s Turandot, our innovative drive-in production of The Barber of Seville, and last year’s Roméo et Juliette.
Darlene’s love of the arts stems from her early years acting in Northern California, where she met the love of her life, the late Donald P. Shiley. The Shileys’ deep generosity has had an incredible impact on organizations across San Diego. We are grateful for their devotion to San Diego Opera and to the arts.
