Organisation FAQs

What is Operabase and how can it benefit my organisation?

Operabase is a performing arts database used by casting directors, artistic administrators, festivals, orchestras, competitions and venues. It brings casting, programming, discovery and audience engagement together in one place.

How Operabase benefits your organisation

  • Casting and programming: use the Casting Tool and Talent Search to find artists based on repertoire, availability, experience and professional profile.
  • Visibility: your organisation, productions and artists are shown to audiences and industry professionals.
  • Ticketing: add ticket links to your productions so audiences can go directly to your box office.
  • Visibility insights: track page views, searches and impressions through your Visibility Report.
  • Collaborations and rentals: work with other organisations, festivals and venues, or list a production for rental.

Who at our organisation can have access? Does every colleague need their own subscription?

Everyone at your organisation with a work email address has access to all Pro Tools under a single Organisation Premium subscription; no individual subscriptions are needed. 

How current is the casting data, and where does it come from?

Casting data comes from productions added by organisations themselves, from performance credits added and corrected by artists and agents, and from material submitted through Add/Edit. Performances can be verified through Red Mask.

Can we manage our own page, seasons and productions? 

Yes, you manage your organisation's page, seasons and productions directly. 

How do availability and travel time work?

They draw on an artist's published schedule and performance locations. 

How do we list a production for rental, or find a co-production partner?

See Rentals for how to list a production, and how to search existing and past productions to find a co-production partner.

What do visibility reports show, and can our marketing team use them?

Impressions, page views and search appearances for your organisation's page and productions. Anyone on your team with access to the page can view them, including marketing.
