OPERA TODAY FOR THE WORLD OF TOMORROW

About us

Green Opera is a charity making theatre that’s environmentally sustainable, using opera to inspire new audiences while championing care for the world around us.

We want the arts to help people own the emotions and stories of climate change, creating spaces where audiences and artists can speak honestly, listen generously, and act imaginatively and practically.

We’re calling for sector-wide change – collaboration, best practice, inclusion, and measurable, purposeful work – so the climate crisis is treated as a crisis, and our art is made with intention, determination and courage.
