Opera Theatre Company is

the National Touring Company of Ireland. With offices in Dublin and Belfast, OTC was founded to create high quality opera productions that can be presented anywhere, from a Church to a community centre, from a thousand seater Opera House to a hundred seater arts centre. Since its first tour of Turn of the Screw in 1986, OTC as toured all compass points of the island from Derry to Skibbereen, as well as visiting festivals around the globe.

Opera Theatre Company has had national and international success with a number of baroque and early classical operas, as well as operas from the 20th century. In addition, the company has commissioned and performed new operas by Irish composers. It has also developed a strong reputation for challenging and satisfying site-specific productions.

In addition to producing opera, OTC has a strong Outreach programme, again operative throughout the island of Ireland, and a Young Associate Artists' Programme, which is unique in Ireland, guiding young singers at the commencement of their professional careers.
