In 1999, [[Charles Hazlewood]] and [[Mark Dornford-May]] were invited to create a new opera company in Cape Town. After auditioning in the townships and villages of South Africa, the mostly black lyric-theatre company [[DDK]] (''Dimpho di Kopane'' – Sotho for “combined talents”) was formed. Of the 40 members, only three had professional training as opera singers.
 
 
 
In January 2001, the company made its debut with Bizet’s ''[[Carmen]]'' (as ''[[U-Carmen]]'') at the [[Spier Amphitheatre]], Stellenbosch.  They later also co-produced the film version, ''[[U-Carmen eKhayelitsha]]'' (as [[Spier Films]]).
