Royal Opera Canada
2004-2005 Profile

   Royal Opera Canada’s mission is to present to diverse audiences the best-loved operas with traditional sets, costumes, and staging, featuring national and international artists. Dedicated to performing the most well-known, largely 19th Century operas, and Mozart, Royal Opera Canada remains true to the composers’ intentions, providing high quality traditional performances.

   Royal Opera Canada, founded in March 2003 is an extension of the prototype for presenting traditional opera developed by Opera Mississauga, formed in 1985. All performances take place in the grand Main Stage of the Toronto Centre for the Arts (North York), or in the renowned acoustics of Hammerson Hall at the Living Arts Centre (Mississauga).
