Santa Fe Opera Names Fishbone As Advertising Agency of Record

SANTA FE, June 6, 2008 — Fishbone Marketing, Albuquerque, has been named advertising agency of record for The Santa Fe Opera’s 2009 Season.

Fishbone, a marketing firm established in 2002, has worked with the Opera as a marketing and creative consultant for its 2008 season.

“We’re thrilled to represent one of New Mexico’s and America’s premiere cultural institutions,” said Fishbone CEO, Nathan James. “The Santa Fe Opera is an ensemble company committed to staging American and world premieres. We support those values.”

In 2009, the Opera will stage the world premiere of The Letter by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Paul Moravec and librettist Terry Teachout, an author and columnist for The Wall Street Journal. The Letter is an “opera noir,” based on Somerset Maugham’s short story and play, which was the basis of a 1940 film starring Bette Davis.

In addition to The Santa Fe Opera, Fishbone's New Mexico clients include the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta and Abba Technologies.
