“You do not need to be educated to be touched, to be moved and excited by opera. You only need to experience it directly at first hand with nothing getting in the way. ”

Empowering the next generation of directors

Inspired by the extraordinary legacy of Sir Graham Vick, the Graham Vick Foundation creates opportunities for exceptional emerging talent to develop, lead and shape the future of the performing arts.

Beginning with emerging directors in opera and musical theatre, we provide access to professional development, mentorship and opportunities that help talent realise its potential.

Rooted in Graham's belief in artistic excellence, inclusivity and the power of creativity to change lives, we are committed to removing barriers and opening doors for the next generation.
