Opera On a Shoestring is a small, independent, professional company based in Glasgow.

Concert in Kelvingrove Museum, Glasgow,  3 November 2007

"Opera On A Shoestring have a reputation for doing exactly what they say on the tin: presenting quality operatic productions on the tiniest of budgets. A packed Cottier Theatre was testament to the expectations the company generates... The audience was not disappointed."

- Mark Brown in The Scotsman on Carmen, 2003

Our current production  is the touring show "¡España!", an evening of excerpts from operas set in Spain. Click on the link for more details.

“The real strength of Opera On A Shoestring is collective. They have succeeded in consistently delivering a strong flavour of authentic opera which transcends the limitations of staging and the lack of orchestral accompaniment through a focus on quality singing and a genuine commitment to the music.”

– Kenny Mathieson in the Inverness Courier on An Evening In Paris
