About
Ever since our formation in 1988, MTW has been a force for change and development in opera in the UK. We are driven by a passionate belief that newly created opera can provide some of the most exciting and powerful experiences, and we have always wanted to share this as widely as possible.
Since 2022, the range of our work and the way we are working has changed beyond recognition, but our core mission remains consistent: To present opera as a contemporary artform. And by contemporary we mean NOW – as society is and not as it was, striving to respond to change and seeing this as a creative opportunity as well as an imperative, and seeking to share work in ways that is truly relevant and engaging. Everything we do will remain characterised by excellence – in creation and performance, in engagement and inclusion, in organisation and execution, in impact and responsibility.
