Montsalvat Arts Centre, in partnership with Victorian Opera continue their commitment to the creation of new work. The New Work Opera Studio is a program where young people aged 15 – 25 years of age can come together to create new opera for tomorrow.
Over a two-week period in the June/July school holidays, participants will take part in workshops with industry professionals led by Peter Rutherford, to brainstorm and write an original libretto. They will then identify and rearrange opera and classic musical theatre songs to insert into the libretto and workshop the piece for a reading.
Join us as workshop participants provide a reading of their work. A reading is not a full performance, rather it provides an overview of what the work will look like by providing narration and performance excerpts.
