Madeline Coffey

Madeline Coffey is a Mezzo-Soprano celebrated for her “superb” singing and captivating vocal quality across both opera and musical theater. Originally from Indiana, she earned her bachelor’s and master’s degrees at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, where she performed several mainstage roles, including Josephine in H.M.S. Pinafore, Miles in The Turn of the Screw, Sandmann in Hansel und Gretel, and Helen Bailey in Jake Heggie’s It’s a Wonderful Life.

In 2022, Madeline made her professional debut as Mabel in The Pirates of Penzance at Cedar Rapids Opera. Later that year, she joined Charlottesville Opera’s Ader Emerging Artist program, where she sang Baroness Elsa Schrader in The Sound of Music and covered Valencienne in The Merry Widow. In 2023, she returned to Charlottesville to cover Sarah Brown in Guys and Dolls and also performed as a soloist with the Oratorio Society of Virginia.

In the summer of 2024, Madeline joined the Ohio Light Opera Company, revisiting her role as Sarah Brown. In spring 2025, she returned to Charlottesville Opera for Sing Me a Story and participated in Marshall Opera’s Oral History Project, premiering “Maggie’s Dilemma”  from Hobson’s Choice, a new opera by Tom Cipullo.
