Royal Opera House Jette Parker Artists Programme - Stage Directors Auditions (2022-2024)

This application closed on Friday March 25, 2022.

After the initial application on YAP Tracker, shortlisted candidates will be asked to prepare and record a concept presentation for the opera, Arminio, to be submitted by 21st April 2022. Due to a tight turn around between being notified of being a shortlisted candidate on the 1st April, and the deadline on the 21st April, you may wish to begin to prepare this now. If you have any questions on the repertoire/opera, please contact jpyapassistant@roh.org.uk

More detail on the auditions process, including repertoire to prepare in advance, can be found on the Royal Opera House website

Please give the names and contact details of two referees. These may not be your agent or teacher.

It is the applicant’s responsibility to contact their referees in plenty of time to ensure they are happy to provide a reference and are able to do so by the deadline. If any of the original referees has not responded a week before the deadline, it is recommended that applicants contact others so that their application can still be completed in time. At this stage, the applicant may add details of up to two further referees to ensure that at least two references are received by the deadline.
