Small organization. Big mission.

Music Theater Bavaria, Inc. was organized in October 2010 to own and operate the Music Theater Bavaria (now “Musiktheater Bavaria”) summer study-abroad program in Germany established in the year 2000 by MTB’s Founder and Director Emeritus, former Rollins College Professor Richard R. Owens (1931–2018).

Musiktheater Bavaria operates an intensive program for students of opera and musical theater each year during the month of July in Oberaudorf, Germany. Some of the members of our volunteer Board of Directors provide hands-on management of the program, working alongside our programs’ artistic faculty and committed volunteers. All of our resources are devoted to the MTB program and the costs of providing the incredible array of training that it offers.

We are a small organization whose leaders are passionate about our educational mission. Our focus is delivering the best possible summer Young Artist Program experience for performers who aspire to a career in classical music or musical theater.
