What is it?

Uprising is the new community opera by . This opera explores the climate crisis through the eyes of the youth and asks pressing questions: how do we look beyond the here and now? What is the most effective form of protest? Are we really listening closely enough to those who are protesting? The opera gives a powerful voice to the key players in this crisis: young adults and nature itself.

What is a community opera?

A community opera is an opera in which the 'community' takes part. In this case, six professional singers perform the principal roles, while the choir is made up of 'ordinary' people who enjoy singing and making theatre. Everything else involved-from sets to costumes, and from technical production to publicity-is handled just as professionally as in all other productions by Opera Zuid and De Nationale Opera.

All participants are closely supported by professionals. This also means that, if you take part, we expect a professional level of commitment from you.
