Rehearsing Daphne today with @regentsopera.bsky.social at St Hilda’s

Really sad to hear we have lost Bill Dare, worked with him on the Mary Whitehouse Experience. He was funny and he was kind and that is about as good as it gets.

With all our hearts, THANK YOU to everyone who came to #Yorkhalla in Bethnal Green over the last month. We are already bereft but so proud of everything our whole team achieved. A little bit of the Rhine will forever flow through East London.

Coming down slowly from the impact of the extraordinary @regentsopera.bsky.social Ring Cycle. An utter privilege to be so close to such powerful singing and acting. Unforgettable.

Drowned in sound… @regentsopera.bsky.social stick the landing with a monumental ‘Götterdämmerung’. A triumphant Ring Cycle: visceral, witty, gut-wrenching and heroically ambitious. Fantastic week.

Forging ahead (hey!) with the @regentsopera.bsky.social Ring - a suitably incendiary ‘Siegfried’ this evening. Performances of real physicality & power. Back on Sunday to watch it all go to blazes.
Tonight’s curtain call. Tonight’s curtain call. Tonight’s curtain call.

Superb climax to my birthday as the real epic is just beginning: a thrilling ‘Rheingold’ @regentsopera.bsky.social. Set up nicely for the next 13 hours or so… 😉

Ring Cycle 2 starts 5pm today @regentsopera.bsky.social at York Hall, Bethnal Green (to be continued at 5pm Tuesday and Thursday, and 3pm next Sunday). There are a handful of tickets still available (and you don’t have to book all four operas together) - hope to see some of you there!

Hope you're having a great Saturday night - we're getting an early one as tomorrow we begin the end of the world (otherwise known as Das Rheingold). Hard to believe this is the last Ring Cycle the UK will see this year. York Hall, Bethnal Green, 5pm!

We're slowly coming up for air after last night's #Götterdämmerung. We'd be pretty broken right now if it wasn't for the fact WE START IT ALL AGAIN ON SUNDAY! Come and join us in #Yorkhalla - the water's lovely #Rheingold #RegentsRing #RingCycle #London #BethnalGreen

Enjoyed @regentsopera.bsky.social Ring Cycle so much, that I’m back tonight to see Götterdämmerung for a second time (in five days).

The Ring has come full circle. Four delightful days with Regents Opera, experiencing the best of opera alongside the most creative output fringe theatre has to offer. Feeling a little bereft after Götterdämmerung – the gods have faced their twilight, and I’ll miss the lovely new friends I’ve made!

Ring Cycle! Pizza! EVERYTHING!

Present Me is congratulating Past Me for putting a pizza in the fridge which I’d totally forgotten about, ready for me to roll home in a taxi after Regents Opera Götterdämmerung #1 + pub afterwards, starving.

We did a whole Ring cycle! 😍😍 @regentsopera.bsky.social

Our #Götterdämmerung opens tomorrow! This is your last chance to see it first! (and there's only 3 chances in total). THIS IS NOT A DRILL. A small number of tickets are still available online and on the door.

Excellent vocal acting and total commitment to the text make for a riveting piece of operatic storytelling, driven by James Schouten's powerful Loge.

We were a bit busy last night, so here is our belated #RingCycle/ #superbowl joke: Gimme an E! *E*, Gimme an E! *E*, Gimme an E.... Oh you can see where we're going with this...

SO glad I didn’t miss ‘fringe’ Regents Opera’s Das Rheingold kicking off their complete Ring Cycle at York Hall. Small-scale Wagner, but nothing diminutive about their talent & creativity.
James Schouten was a fabulous Loge – great elocution too!
Can’t wait for Die Walküre next!
