Opera della Luna

Opera della Luna, founded in 1994, is a British touring theatre troupe of actor-singers focusing on comic works. Led by artistic director Jeff Clarke, it takes its name from Haydn's operatic setting of Goldoni's farce ''Il mondo della luna''. The company presents innovative, usually zany and irreverent, small-scale productions and adaptations of Gilbert and Sullivan, other comic opera and operetta, in English. Opera della Luna is a registered British charity.
The company undertakes two major tours each year, visiting over a hundred mid-scale venues throughout the UK. Occasionally the company has toured overseas. Clarke directs all of the productions, which are small-scale adaptations performed without chorus, accompanied by a small orchestral ensemble.〔(Opera della luna official website ), accessed 12 November 2009〕
==History and description==
In 1986, Clarke founded The English Players, a touring opera ensemble. Clarke's productions for that company included English-language adaptations of ''Love in a Village'' (which toured as far as Denver, Colorado), Boieldieu’s ''The Caliph of Bagdad'' and ''Abu Hassan'' (two one-act operas presented together), ''Il mondo della luna'' and ''Robinson Crusoé''. After four years, Clark disbanded The English Players while he planned for a new, better-funded company.〔Clarke, Jeff. ''Borrowed Light: A retrospective of 15 years on the road with Opera della Luna''. December 2010, Jeff Clarke and Opera della Luna, Bicester. ISBN 978-0-9567694-0-4〕
With the help of marketer and versatile theatre professional Graham Watson, Clarke established Opera della Luna as a registered charity with a board of directors and a base of regular supporters. The company's name was intended to convey its zany style of adaptation. The company's first production, in 1994, was ''Robinson Crusoé''. Plagued by transit strikes, the show lost money.〔Bradley, p. 86〕 Clarke and friends made up part of the deficit by playing evenings of music hall concerts.〔
