National Youth Opera Aotearoa: Opera Odyssey

Opera Odyssey is the culminating performance of the NYOA Hybrid Programme, presenting a curated sequence of operatic scenes designed to strengthen young artists’ technical, musical, and dramatic capability. The module focuses on ensemble literacy, intentional storytelling, and the craft of bringing character and narrative to life in an intimate theatre setting.

The programme centres on Mozart, with scenes from Le Nozze di Figaro, Bastien and Bastienne, and The Magic Flute, and extends into contrasting repertoire including Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel, Beethoven’s Fidelio, Mozart’s Don Giovanni, and Bellini’s La Sonnambula.

This selection offers artists a wide stylistic range, supporting development in text, character work, and collaborative preparation. Opera Odyssey provides an essential platform for applied learning in scene work and performance. The MTG Century Theatre’s intimate scale and acoustics create the ideal environment for this module, allowing the nuances of character, ensemble interaction, and narrative detail to emerge with clarity and artistic focus.
