Hip Hopera Oakham Festival Slam Events Arts for Rutland.





Slam Events presents ‘Hip Hopera’, a cross genre performance bringing together live classical opera and urban dance. The show aims to prove that opera can be accessible and hip hop can be highbrow.

They guarantee an incredibly exciting evening of entertainment bringing something new to audiences of Opera and Hip Hop alike; a sensitive and subtle Hip hop performance to compliment the power of the music.

Starring Caroline Trutz, The Two and a Half Sopranos, Sarah Bell and dancers.
