In Glasgow this summer, we are staging a one of a kind, outdoor promenade production of Leonard Bernstein’s satirical opera, Candide, and are encouraging members of the public from all walks of life to join the show’s community chorus.
Memory Spinners, our project designed to engage with people living with dementia through music and art, has begun at Glasgow’s St Columba’s Church and Holy Trinity Church Hall in St Andrews. Having launched in 2012, the sessions were put on hold for two years during the pandemic and this is the first time the groups have been able to come together since.
This May, we are delighted to present a revival of our dark and atmospheric 2013 production of Don Giovanni at Theatre Royal Glasgow, Eden Court Inverness and Festival Theatre Edinburgh. Possible for the first time since the end of 2019, the tour also visits His Majesty’s Theatre, in Aberdeen. The 5 June performance in Edinburgh marks the 60th anniversary of our founding, which will spark a year of celebration.
Scottish Opera's new production of Britten's A Midsummer Night's Dream, directed by Dominic Hill, has captivated audiences in Glasgow, with audiences and critics praising its creativity, astounding music and originality.
We are pleased to announce that two members of Scottish Opera Young Company (SOYC), Dillon McFarlane and Ruaraidh McBain have been awarded our Audition Bursary Prize, funded by The Leverhulme Trust this year.
