Yuval Sharon to step down as artistic director of the Industry opera company

In what could be considered the end of an era, the Industry on Thursday announced that Yuval Sharon will step down as artistic director of the groundbreaking L.A. opera company. The company's executive director, Tim Griffin, who came on board in summer 2023, will expand his title to become both executive and artistic director.

Sharon also sought to broaden opera's tent, to welcome in young, diverse audiences and to expand opportunities for women and artists of color. He won a MacArthur genius grant in the process and penned the book “A New Philosophy of Opera,” which detailed a thriving future for the changing genre. Among Sharon's most memorable — and mind-bending — accomplishments was his 2015 opera 'Hopscotch,' which took place in 24 vehicles driving on the roads of L.A.
