Business Description
This year marks the 75th anniversary of Lowell House Opera — the oldest opera company in New England — which we will commemorate with our spring 2013 staging of Benjamin Britten's "Midsummer Night's Dream."
Established in 1938, the Lowell House Opera is the longest continually performing opera company in New England, featuring students and professionals from both Harvard and the greater Cambridge/Boston area. Each year, dozens of artists and student artists volunteer their time to stage a production with full orchestra, costumes, sets, and lighting in the Lowell House Dining Hall. The operas are often performed in their original language, with English supertitles projected in front of the stage. The hall functions as a more intimate performance venue particularly suited to lighter voices that enables audience members to experience opera up close.
Lowell House Opera offers educational opportunities on many levels and is dedicated to developing professional skills on many fronts. Experienced directors and production staff direct workshops and individual coaching sessions to enhance performance skills. Singers are able to learn and perform their roles in the original language and to explore the literary basis and historical context for the work. For undergraduates in particular, the opera offers a unique opportunity to work with more experienced artists who have devoted their professional lives to opera and theater.
Lowell House Opera is a community effort involving artists from Harvard University and beyond. It is seen by audience members from throughout the greater Boston area and over fifteen hundred people each season.
