Brainchild of April Koyejo-Audiger, Atelier Aukoko is a new music theatre company with a strong commitment to sustainability and inclusivity. We create fully immersive experiences that bring powerful stories and innovative music theatre to life, pushing the boundaries of traditional opera. Our productions, such as the sold-out Ayanfe, attract new, diverse audiences by redefining classical music in ways that are both captivating and inclusive.

​

We blend tradition with forward-thinking approaches, incorporating new technologies, world music influences, and participatory, immersive experiences. This not only inspires new audiences but also promotes sustainable practices and a more inclusive, accessible approach to the art form.

Through creative and educational initiatives, we foster connections across cultures, helping young and emerging voices develop their artistic skills and celebrate their heritage. Our ethos is centered on community, be it artistic, wider community or the global community, everything we do, is to challenge traditional boundaries and build the type of future in classical music and opera, that we would want to be part of.
