We’re hitting the road once more this February with our Opera Highlights tour, an entertaining night out filled with energy, versatility and plenty of humour. Four fantastic young singers introduce a line-up of excerpts from well-known operas combined with some delightful surprises from lesser-known works.
A favourite with audiences across Scotland, this gem of an evening has something for everyone, from seasoned fans to opera first-timers. Featuring a mixture of operatic styles including arias, duets and ensembles from operas like Puccini’s La bohème, Mozart’s Don Giovanni and Gounod’s Romeo and Juliet as well as music by Handel, Rossini, Gilbert and Sullivan, Saint-Saëns and Bernstein.
]This year’s cast includes: two Scottish Opera Emerging Artists, soprano Miranda Sinani and mezzo-soprano Louise Collett, who are both performing for the company throughout the 2009/10 season; tenor Adrian Ward, winner of the 2008 Royal Over-Seas League vocal section prize; and baritone Robert Tucker, a recent Emerging Performer at the Australian Opera Studio.
With accompaniment provided by Ruth Wilkinson on piano, Opera Highlights is the perfect opportunity to experience opera up close and personal at a venue near you, and with tickets at just £10, it’s a night not to be missed!

An amateur production by arrangement with Samuel French Limited
By Dan Goggin
The team from the 2008 Lochside Theatre Company production of The Steamie brings you a fun-filled evening of musical comedy.
The Little Sisters of Hoboken are in dire need of funds to pay for the burial of 52 of their sisters, who have been accidentally poisoned by their cook. They decide to put on a variety show complete with star turns, ballet dancing, an audience quiz, and comic surprises. Come and meet Reverend Mother Regina, a former circus performer; Sister Mary Hubert, the Mistress of Novices; a streetwise nun from Brooklyn named Sister Robert Anne; Sister Mary Leo, a novice who is a wannabe ballerina; and the delightfully wacky Sister Mary Amnesia, the nun who lost her memory when a crucifix fell on her head!
