Drama at the Factory

Opera Factory in Newmarket, Auckland is a training ground for singers. Operating since 1994, it runs classes and workshops at all levels, from the most basic beginners to advanced musical, character and language work for those moving toward a professional opera career. It is also a place for pianists, musical and stage directors, costume, lighting and stage designers, theatre technicians, stage managers, and more.

A production of Prima Donna, a comedy by Arthur Benjamin, provided an opportunity to go behind the scenes and photograph the crew and cast as they prepared for the show.
