“I’d like to say how much I loved your performance of The Pirates of Penzance on Friday evening in Steeple Aston Village Hall – what a treat for those of us living in the outback/sticks/back of beyond where I’d not normally expect to find opera! Beautiful voices, ingenious musical accompaniment and an amusing and creative production.”

Judd, audience member, Steeple Aston, September 2016
