4 What We Do FACTS AND FIGURES The Royal Opera House has charitable status and is a national institution seeking to involve and engage with as many people as possible. Just a few of the ways we do this are via our extensive range of programmes and events for young people, our commitment to keeping ticket prices down, and through directing most of our resources to front-line performance, education and outreach.programmes and events for young people In our 2008/09 season: In the main auditorium we attracted total audiences of more than 630,000. Main stage audiences were 93% of capacity. Generated more than £2 for ever £1 of public subsidy. Ninth successive year of positive cash balance. Almost 40,000 visitors to the Newham Town Show in July were treated to an original opera in partnership with ROH Education. Our work was seen across the country on 18 screens via BP Summer Big Screen and BBC presentations, giving almost 25,000 people the chance to experience it.
