Giving more young people the opportunity to experience opera and learn about the artform is an important initiative and a passion project for OA’s new Artistic Director Jo Davies.
Ms Davies:
It’s a thrill to announce a wonderful new program aimed at encouraging more young Australians to experience opera. This initiative will help to reduce the barrier of cost, which we know is a big issue in this current cost of living crisis. It’s especially important in challenging financial times like these that we don’t give up on the arts! So, for those curious to experience opera, possibly for the first time, this program should provide a much more accessible pathway to the art form.
Known as Opera’s greatest thriller, Tosca is a taut tale of passion and betrayal, taking place over just 24
hours in Rome. It is the perfect first taste of opera and an opportunity to experience how music can bring
great stories to emotional highs. Tosca has it all: romance, action and an unforgettable ending.
Registration can be completed online and proof-of-age will be required to enter all venues for Under 35s
ticketholders.
