Vadstena Academy
The International Vadstena Academy may be Sweden’s smallest opera house, but when it comes to replenishing the opera repertory it is the country’s greatest institution. So far the Vadstena Academy has commissioned and staged 34 new operas and nearly 50 undeservedly lost operas dug out of antique manuscripts. They give both the participants and the audience the chance to encounter operas that are not part of the mainstream repertoire.
Vadstena Academy provides an established road to professional life for young singers, musicians and for practioners of other crafts involved in the world of opera such as lighting, wardrobe and stagecraft. Since its opening in 1964, many of Sweden’s professional opera singers have performed at Vadstena Castle or the Old Theatre.
