Meet my guests, Andrew Adridge and Daevyd Pepper. Together, they have brainstormed and set in motion an incredible initiative surrounding Opera, and how to make it more accessible, especially to our youth, and in a welcoming and safe environment for all. Their aim is to provide education and to build a fire in the belly of young people about Opera, about how creative they can be (There should be no limits on that!), and how even if one has never been exposed to Opera before, all are welcome to explore and learn ~ with expert guidance along the way, in the form of Mentors. Have a listen to find out what their programming is all about, how they intend to REACH people and keep them engaged, who they are working with on their Mentorship Team, and who some of the Partners are that are helping to make their vision possible.
This is an extremely important outreach on behalf of an entire industry ~ one that continues to be downplayed and that has now suffered some very hard strikes due to COVID. It's not only important to engage new audiences, but to find and nurture the FUTURE of Opera itself. Opera In Reach makes Canada one of the leaders in its unique approach.
