Content Summary:
In 1956, the Australian Opera Company was formed in Sydney under the auspices of the Australian Elizabethan Theatre Trust. By 1957, it changed its name to the Elizabethan Theatre Trust Opera Company, and in 1970, the company became known as The Australian Opera. In 1996 Opera Australia was formed by the merger of the Australian Opera and the Victoria State Opera (VSO) companies.
