A Mission to Commission
W11 Opera has commissioned and produced 30 new operas, more than any other UK company, providing a rich repertoire of music theatre for its cast of 9 to 18 year olds. Each has a running time of just over one hour. Most of our commissions are available for performance by schools and music theatre groups. A number of them have already been revived in the UK, the Continent and the USA.
For full details on each commission just follow the links below. Should you be interested in reviving one of our operas, or would like further information, please contact , or the composer as listed. We would be grateful to hear from any company reviving a W11 opera, and would hope for a credit to W11 Opera for the commission in any performance programme.
If you are interested in composing a new work for W11 Opera please get in touch and we will send you our Commission Brief. We commission two to three years in advance and are always interested to hear from composers and librettists.
