LUCRETIA - HGO (cover performance) shot beautifully by @julianguideraphotography

Despite minimal rehearsals and little time with the (incredible!) orchestra - we did it!! Huge thanks to the legends that are @katie__blackwell and @kentaromachida.conductor who got us into shape in only 4 weeks, and all my fellow amazing covers who made this such a special experience. Lucretia- I hope I get the chance to revisit you again💚

Fell in love with Athens and pretending I can speak Greek 🇬🇷🏛️ by @abbiewardmezzo

Supper chuffed with these lovely reviews for Cherubino @telegraph @thoroughly_good @musicomh @ayoungishperspective - only one more chance to catch us at Birmingham rep on the 27th- then you’ll find me curled up in a ball crying about how much I miss this show and all the people involved🥺 by @abbiewardmezzo

‘Am I in your Light?’ From Dr Atomic by John Adams, recorded by the brilliant @dprecording with @girelandpianist

Kitty Oppenheimer sings to her preoccupied husband Robert, who is working on The Manhattan Project, and the construction and testing of an atomic bomb. She feels completely helpless and abandoned by him, yet wants to support him despite having two young children to look after as well. This scene sums up her sadness and longing to be closer to him emotionally.

I do love this aria but boy there’s a lot of counting involved! by @abbiewardmezzo

Escaped the London heat wave for epic lightening storms in Como x by @abbiewardmezzo

Had an absolute blast taking our @wildartspresents Marriage of Figaro to @operahollandpark - what an amazing evening, so inspired by each and every one of these wonderful colleagues!

Sad to be saying goodbye to the wittiest, most outrageous @jacksandisonbassbaritone as Figaro- we will miss you!

Nearing the end of our run now but you can still catch us at The Minack Theatre, Norwich Theatre Royal and Birmingham Rep🎼 by @abbiewardmezzo
