Have you ever seen an operatic performance and wondered about a character’s backstory and what drives them?

So have we!

Every Prologue Opera production is a unique, character-driven, two part reimagining of a well-known opera.

PART ONE - PROLOGUE

A completely original dramatic performance mixing music from the original piece with songs from other musical styles and newly composed music that tells the never-before-seen stories of key characters within the opera, before they appear in the traditional narrative of the original.

PART TWO - OPERA

A fast-paced and enthralling reduction of the full original opera, within which the characters you now know, in an entirely new way, take on greater meaning to stir the emotions like never before. 

Part theatre, part opera company, Prologue Opera is as passionate about pulling audiences into the world of opera as it is about reaching out to the community, involving those that don’t feel opera is for them!

Every accessible, innovative and thought-provoking Prologue Opera engages, excites and entertains from the first note to the final curtain, challenging your preconception of opera.
