We
offer a wide range of operatic themed evenings, specially produced and tailored
to suit each individual event/venue. We work with a number of agencies and have
performed in many unusual venues -from a Gondola to a theatre stage on a lorry- for corporate and private parties, weddings, gala evenings and TV stunts.
No venue is too obscure!
