We have raised all the money so far from trusts and individuals and we are incredibly grateful. We need to raise a further £60,000.
Whatever you give, every little helps and we would of course be grateful for any contribution. For our last project we received donations ranging from £25 to £50,000.
That is what made it happen.

“At Wilton’s Music Hall Stravinsky’s The Rake’s Progress is the first ever production by the box fresh OperaGlass Works, and it is staged with polish and panache, with especial attention to theatre as well as musical skills… On Wilton’s diddy stage, simply dressed by Tom Piper with snakes and ladders for central character Tom Rakewell’s perilous game of life, everyone is in the zone, every second… The Rake’s Progress is delightful to look at… and everyone is working their silken socks off. The crystal clear diction, making the most of WH Auden’s and Chester Kallman’s smart libretto, is a treat…OperaGlass Works has faultless aims and amazing resources; most other companies would have to do a deal with Nick Shadow to create a production of this quality with a top seat price of £25.”
Culture Whisper
“Wilton’s Music Hall is a choice setting for the inaugural production of OperaGlass Works, a new company that plans to bring chamber operas up close to its audiences. This is a fine outing for Stravinsky’s morality tale, drawing first rate performances from the excellent cast…Almost every word of WH Auden’s and Chester Kallman’s libretto is clear, and it is a good choice to dispense with surtitles”
