Opera Praktikos

Opera Praktikos‬‭ (OPrak) is New York City’s first disability-affirmative opera company. We present a genre of opera that is interabled and champions disability-artistry as a creative force in the field. Through deliberate reinterpretations of classical operas‬ and the commissioning of new works, we want our performers, arts-workers and audiences to authentically find themselves in the stories we portray on stage. We do this by honoring disability culture, fostering access to community and making opera happen in the very heart of New York City.
