About English Touring Opera:

Since 1979, English Touring Opera has toured outstanding live productions and impactful education and community projects to more towns and cities than any other UK opera company. At the heart of our ethos is making exceptional artistic experiences available and accessible to everyone. We reach 40,000 people per year with full theatre based productions, specially commissioned operas for infants, children, families and young people with special educational needs, a series of creative workshops for people living with dementia and their carers, opera making workshops in secondary schools, and songwriting workshops in Alternative Provision settings designed to benefit young people's mental health.

We actively encourage applications from disabled people, working class people and people from global majority backgrounds, as these groups are currently under represented in the cultural sector.
