Glyndebourne appoints a Dramaturg

Glyndebourne has appointed a Dramaturg to advise on specialist opera content for a range of initiatives including programme books, publications, media, and pre-performance talks and study events, and to provide support to Glyndebourne’s creative teams.

Cori Ellison, a leading creative figure in the opera world, will join the team on a part-time basis this autumn.  Previously staff dramaturg at New York City Opera from 1997-2010, Cori creates supertitles for opera companies across America and helped to launch Met Titles, the Met’s simultaneous translation system. In addition, she teaches opera dramaturgy for American Lyric Theater’s Composer-Librettist Development Program and regularly writes for the New York Times.
