Opera Restor'd recreates and makes accessible the rich musical life of earlier centuries and is the only touring company specialising in 17th and 18th century English opera and music theatre. Since 1986 the company has brought its work to audiences in England and abroad by concentrating principally on small-scale, flexible productions of eighteenth century comic operas supported by a small orchestra. It was the first opera company to tour on the Early Music Network and has provided music and performers for the feature film, Princess Caraboo. Opera Restor'd works with Hyperion Records in making English opera available to the public and is committed to, and has provided opportunities for, many young singers and designers.
