Swansea City Opera

Swansea City Opera is the City of Swansea's flag-ship opera company, touring high quality opera to venues throughout the UK.

Swansea City Opera was formed with financial assistance from City & County of Swansea and incorporates elements of Opera Box Limited, a smaller, well-accredited, touring opera company, established in 1989. Opera Box was chosen by the City & County of Swansea to form the basis of their new flagship company because of the high standards of its productions and musical values, and its fifteen years experience in touring quality opera to theatres of all sizes.

Since its launch in May 2004, Swansea City Opera has toured to 91 venues across the UK. The company’s repertoire so far has included Cosi fan Tutte, The Barber of Seville, The Pearl Fishers, and most recently, the rarely performed, The Daughter of the Regiment by Donizetti. Performances of all operas have proved extremely popular, attracting substantial audiences and amply fulfilling SCO’s role as ambassador for the City and County of Swansea.
