Finally, it is with great excitement that I can announce my involvement in the upcoming world premiere production of Torsten Rasch’s Duchess of Malfi at English National Opera. This is a co-production with Punchdrunk Theatre Company and the buzz surrounding this project is so huge that already the Sunday Times and the Guardian are calling it the not-to-be-missed event of the summer. Tickets are extremely limited and go on sale today. I will be singing the matinee performances on the 17th and 24th of July. Click here to book.
Punchdrunk are the theatre group of the moment and Duchess of Malfi follows on from their stunning success with Adam Curtis’ It Felt Like a Kiss at last summers Manchester Festival. Audience members are promised a totally unique opera experience.
This week I’m also preparing Nico Muhly’s Two Boys which I will be singing in workshops with the composer next week at English National Opera. A busy and challenging time but so thrilling to be working with this exciting new music.
