This autumn we will be running our singers workshops in collaboration with English Touring Opera, as we did last year.
It is with great sadness that we report the passing of our dear colleague, Pauline Beaton. Pauline had been with D’Oyly Carte for almost twenty-years and served as our book-keeper and more recently as the Music Hire Librarian as well.
On Tuesday 26th November, the Grand Theatre in Wolverhampton will celebrate it’s 125th Anniversary. It was on this date that the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company opened The Grand Theatre in 1894 with a performance of Utopia, Limited.
It is with enormous pleasure that we announce our next collaboration with Scottish Opera in 2020. We will present two new productions to follow on from our hugely successful The Pirates of Penzance (2013) and The Mikado (2016).
D’Oyly Carte opened the Grand Theatre in Wolverhampton way back in 1894, and now 125 years later we will be giving a special performance of Gilbert and Sullivan a la Carte to celebrate the 125th Anniversary of the theatres opening on Tuesday 26th November, 2019.
On 12th July, 1988 The New D’Oyly Carte Opera Company opened it’s London season at the Cambridge Theatre in Seven Dials, Covent Garden.
This spring D’Oyly Carte is partnering with English Touring Opera to present a series of singers workshops to coincide with ETO’s Spring Tour.
This Spring we are collaborating with English Touring Opera, to deliver workshops for teenagers and young adults, introducing the world of Gilbert and Sullivan, and focusing on vocal technique, dialogue, comic timing and patter songs. The sessions will also look at pathways into the profession.
