Little did I know when I chatted to James Clutton on his podcast back in March about the impact of a pandemic on student life and the season Opera Holland Park, that I would be performing there myself this summer! It’s opening night for British Youth Opera Hansel and Gretel and I am SO excited!🍭

And that’s a wrap on British Youth Opera Silent Opera Hansel and Gretel! Had the most amazing three weeks putting this show together and have met the most wonderful people along the way! 🍭🍄🌸🌳
