Nicolas A Garcia and Pocket Opera
Nicolas A. Garcia is the Director of Pocket Opera, a chamber opera company in San Francisco. Garcia has been extensively involved with Pocket Opera, first as a performer and then as General Director after the passing of its founder Donald Pippin in 2021.
Although it’s small compared to other opera companies on this foggy peninsula, Pocket Opera created a niche that has helped it thrive since its founding in 1977. The company translates operas into English and produces shows on a smaller scale, allowing them access to non-traditional locations and a much wider audience. The late founder Donald Pippin took great pride in this fact, as Pocket Opera has now been deeply woven into San Francisco’s cultural fabric. Nicolas Garcia works hard to maintain this status for the company. He cares deeply for what Pocket Opera has accomplished so far and what lies ahead.
