Opera on Tap (OOT) was born in 2005 at Freddy’s Bar and Backroom in Brooklyn and
incorporated in 2007 to promote opera as a viable, living and progressive art form and
to support the developing artists who continue to keep the art form alive. What began as
a small monthly gathering of ambitious, classically trained singers looking for more
performance opportunities, has grown into a producing organization that has gained a
loyal audience base and national recognition as an innovative force on the classical
music scene. Through its Chapter program, which now has over twenty vibrant national
(and international!) chapters, OOT has created a large network of performers, creators,
and supporters.
Opera on Tap’s mission is 1) to expose new audiences to opera and classical music by
taking opera and classical music out of the concert hall and performing it in alternative
venues 2) to aid young performers in their development by giving them the opportunity
to perform and to promote and support them through our organization, and 3) to help
promote new classical works of contemporary classical and operatic composers.
Opera on Tap New Hampshire is excited to be the newest member of this international
organization. This chapter was founded by managing divas Erin M. Smith and Nora
Rose Cronin, two opera singers who met singing opera in the Granite State! OOT NH is
excited to engage the NH community with classical vocal music, presented in a new,
fresh, and fun way!
