Situation
Average ticket prices for full Ring Cycles run into several hundreds of pounds, often making this work of art difficult to access to new audiences. During and post-pandemic, orchestras, production crews and singers have been missing opportunities to further their careers in the arts industry. And opera singers in particular are deprived of opportunities at grassroots levels.
Solution
By creating this opera as a fringe production we can make several levels of our tickets available at extraordinarily affordable prices, opening the opera out to new audiences and by working with Tickets for Good we are also offering hundreds of pounds worth of tickets available for NHS and charity workers. The Ring Cycle will be several of our singers' first professional Wagner production, giving them an all important step up to this challenging repertoire.
