Bloom Britannia is Barefoot Opera's new 'people's opera' – four years in the making - inspired by life in a coastal town in modern Britain, involving people from the communities of Hastings, St. Leonards-on-sea and Bexhill singing alongside professional musicians. The project is open to anyone from any background, to people of all ages, all singing abilities and levels of experience.

Barefoot Opera believes that opera – and singing - can be a fundamental, live-changing part of everyone’s lives. And so, alongside the opera is a wide-ranging and inclusive outreach project that brings the experience of singing and music-making to hundreds of local people, partner organisations, schools and charities.

For a small company, this project and the wealth of people we are reaching, is colossal.
