Dane Lam – Artistic Director of State Opera South Australia

Markus Hamence is Chatting in The Jungle Room with Dane Lam – Artistic Director of State Opera South Australia.

State Opera South Australia has unveiled the rest of its 2025 season with two new productions; a dazzling reimagining of Mozart’s The Magic Flute and a landmark new staging of Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette set for Her Majesty’s Theatre later this year.

With powerful international collaborations, these major new productions underscore Lam’s bold vision to create Opera Without Borders and signal the company’s evolution as a globally connected and artistically fearless institution – one that brings the world to Adelaide, and South Australia to the world.

Check out the interview and Dane and Markus break it all down…
