Another opera chief takes a hike

Another opera chief takes a hike

Virginia Opera is searching for a new CEO as Peggy Kriha Miller handed in her notice in after less than five years.

Terms are getting shorter, conditions tougher.

Miller says she wants to prioritise her family. A soprano who retired in 2017 after a 25-year career, Miller played Stella in Andre Previn’s A Streetcar Named Desire.
