What a wonderful experience it was working with Vancouver Civic Theatres last year. It was such a great experience presenting our opera in their space. Many many thanks

With assistance from a VCT Grant - East Van Opera presented Beauty's Beast at the ANNEX September 2019.

East Van Opera is a Not-For-Profit Society whose focus and mission is to provide work and mentor-ship for Canadian classical composers, especially women, and further the development of their work to increase the standard at which they write.

"You transported me" "I can't believe how beautiful this was" "This is something really special"

"East Van Opera has been an innovative, risk-taking company, and presenting new works such as Beauty’s Beast keeps them at the leading edge of contemporary opera in Vancouver." [Schmopera (Melissa Ratcliff)]
