We’ve been able to release just a handful of extra tickets for all four performances of The Rape of Lucretia next week. Book ‘em quick because when we say just a handful we really mean it. Head to lucretia.info now!

Spot the difference: 78 years ago today The Rape of Lucretia got its first ever outing, and now this summer we’re using it to help a bunch of young professionals kickstart their careers.

Exciting to find out that our chairman, Richard Greenhalgh, is becoming SIR Richard in the King's birthday honours list, for services to education. He gives so much time and energy to BYO and it couldn't be more deserved. Big congratulations and thanks to Sir Richard!

We’re really upset to hear of the sudden death of Keel Watson. Keel was member of BYO in 1989 and has remained beloved in the UK opera community ever since. We will miss you Keel.

Today is International Stage Management Day! As we all know, opera doesn’t happen without stage managers and BYO is so happy to be able to offer bespoke training to future Stage Managers through our Serena Fenwick Programme - learning from the best to be the best they can be!
