You are warmly invited to come and rediscover the joy you first found in opera at our two day practical celebration. Setting aside the ubiquitous discussions around how we might fix opera, we invite you instead to spend a day or two in celebration of why we love it!
The Joy of Opera is a chance for anybody involved, whether creator, performer, backstage, front of house, donor, funder or audience, to join with like minds in a safe space where, through practical sessions rather than debate we can get to know each other and share our enthusiasm, skills and knowledge in a playful yet positive and constructive way.
We’d love to see people considered leaders of the sector playing with those just beginning; young artists still discovering their passions improvising a new show alongside prima donnas and eminences grises.
