Now in its third year, Flourish is a new opera competition, launched by Olivier Award-winning OperaUpClose in association with Eclectic Opera. Extracts from up to seven short-listed operas from the first stage of submissions will be shown at the King's Head Theatre on Sunday 21 September 2014. A panel of industry judges will choose a winner from the short-listed operas. The winning composer and librettist will then have a year to develop the piece, culminating in a full-length production, produced by OperaUpClose at the King's Head Theatre for a season in autumn 2015. Running time: 2hrs 45mins (inc. interval)
