DLO Musical Theatre Memories: Celebrating 70 Years of DLO!

About This Project

In honor of the 70th anniversary of DLO Musical Theatre (Danville Light Opera), Danville Public Library is thrilled to invite the community to contribute to a special Community eCollection celebrating this beloved local institution.

Since its founding in 1956, DLO has brought music, laughter, and unforgettable performances to Danville. Whether you were in the spotlight, behind the scenes, or cheering from the audience, your memories are part of DLO’s rich legacy.

We’re collecting stories, photos, and memorabilia that showcase the joy and impact of DLO through the decades. Help us preserve and celebrate the magic of musical theatre in Danville!
