Check out the virtual welcome events we have in store, and come get involved! All are welcome to come along and ask any questions you have about opera, or life at #WarwickUni

Always love to see what our OpWa alumni are up to!

[Lizzie Holmes @LizzieJHolmes]

This week we start rehearsals on #HGOfigaro. It's my first time doing Susanna in Italian, having sung it as my 1st ever opera role with @OperaWarwick when at Uni and then with @BloomsburyOpera @DaneaLam, @TNelsonBaritone. Then on Thursday our penultimate show of Orfeo/Zanetto.

@sohamt02 Wow, congrats!!! If you like theatre, music or performance you should definitely check out Opera Warwick (in my completely unbiased opinion....)

[Opera Warwick @OperaWarwick]

Memories of our 2020 show this week! Can't wait to get back on this stage

[Jasper 🏳️‍⚧️ @Anna66745455]

This time last year I was on stage having a great time with all my favourite people. I don't think I've ever missed anything or anyone this much 😔🥺

[Opera Warwick @OperaWarwick]

Happy new year from all of us at Opera Warwick!! 🥳🥂
Remember that all of our exec are available for a chat if you need, and we'll be bringing you more opera fun for 2021!

Cant wait for the return of opwa socials (when ever that happens), so we can stop singing the "so far away" and "faaaarewell" songs, and move to singing various opera numbers about partying

@StGregorysPA @TheatreWarwick @open_drama_uk @National_Drama Hi there, I think because of privacy settings we can't DM you first, but if you are able to DM us your email info our Workshops Officer, Ruby, will get in touch!

[Theatre Warwick @TheatreWarwick]

Drama Teachers 🚨@OperaWarwick are keen to work with schools to encourage secondary school students to have a go at opera. They’re offering either pre-recorded videos or live workshops. Would you be interested in this? Willing to be consulted? @National_Drama @open_drama_uk

So awesome to see what some of our OpWa friends are doing now!

[Genevieve Raghu @GenevieveRaghu]

BRILLIANT to see @LizzieJHolmes, a fantastic friend from @warwickuni @OperaWarwick days & amazing work colleague. Hearing her sing LIVE yesterday was so moving, as was *what* she was singing: @into_opera’s latest commission, an extraordinary new song cycle by @Will_Todd_Music. 👏🏼

[Opera Warwick @OperaWarwick]

@WarwickHP Serious question: was there ever any music or theatre in the series? All we can remember is the frog choir in one of the movies. I guess we'd have to establish the first (all-genders inclusive!) opera company and build a theatre in Diagon Alley

[Opera Warwick @OperaWarwick]

Last but not least we present to you our fabulous Outreach Officer: Ruby!!

Ruby is doing a postgrad in Human Rights Law, after doing many musical things around the world! We DO enjoy her promise to feed us
