Sponsorship / Support us
Don’t just give us a tenner - lend us a tenor or a chaise longue or a workshop...
We receive no regular funding for our productions and are reliant on sponsors and fund-raising to help finance our shows. Ticket sales alone rarely cover costs of putting on our productions as we pay for professional cast members, musical and production directors and musicians.
Unlike many opera companies we are lucky to enjoy the luxury of performing with a full orchestra. But luxury does not come cheap, so if you love opera and your heart is in the south east the best way to support us is to become a friend, benefactor or OSE angel.
