Angela Meade fills in for an indisposed soprano in Los Angeles Opera’s company debut of Donizetti’s Roberto Devereux.

Both vocally and instrumentally the performance  was a high-class one

A wonderfully realized production at San Francisco Opera of Jake Heggie's operatic version of a holiday classic. 

Jonathan Watkins' stage adaptation of George Orwell's 1984 is an entertaining and excellent work, presented by Northern Ballet at Leeds' West Yorkshire Playhouse. 

Inspired by Dickens’ novel of the same title, Northern Ballet’s piece really captures the essence of Dickensian London at Christmas time. Dickens’ famous renderings of the festive season made much of his work almost synonymous with Christmas. Dickens’ most popular novel, A Christmas Carol redefined the spirit of Christmas as an enduring sense of community and sharing.
