Award-winning Streetwise Opera has launched Opera Pioneers, a paid programme for people with experience of homelessness to explore behind-the-scenes roles in opera and theatre. The opportunity includes mentorship and placements in Producing, Marketing, Fundraising, Front of House, Arts Leadership and Administration.
The programme runs from October 2025 to March 2026 and includes online sessions as well as in-person activity. Participants are paid the London Living Wage (£13.85/hour) for all sessions, and travel and accommodation is covered where needed. The estimated total fee for taking part will be just over £500. Applications close on 1 September.
