Mahogany Opera has strong connections to #Scotland - we were founded in Edinburgh in 2003, our name is an anagram of Hogmanay, and we continue to work with communities in Scotland, so we wish all of our #Scottish friends good health & a Happy Burns Night!
"Sing on, sweet thrush, upon the leafless bough,
Sing on, sweet bird, I listen to thy strain,
See aged Winter, 'mid his surly reign,
At thy blythe carol, clears his furrowed brow."
Sláinte Mhath! Oidhche Bhlas Burns!

We are currently making sure this year's schools have everything they need - including the materials for the children to create their own props and costumes, using eco-friendly materials for new designs created by Anna Bruder.
All systems are go with the Mahogany Opera team, as we prepare for the start of the Snappy Operas Festival 2026!
We can't wait to start meeting all the schools from this Friday!
