The Story

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, continue to attract new and diverse audiences by redefining classical music in ways that are both captivating and inclusive. We are committed to highlighting and elevating extraordinary artists, both emerging and established, while creating work that will seamlessly blend tradition with innovation.

 

By incorporating world music influences and participatory, immersive experiences, we will challenge conventional boundaries and reimagine the future of classical music and opera. This approach not only inspires new audiences but will also foster sustainability, accessibility, and deeper cultural connections.

At the heart of our work is a commitment to community, whether artistic, local, or global, shaping a more representative and dynamic landscape for the next generation of musicians and audiences alike.
