And it continues.
What the audience says?

“In my life as a singer myself, l was not really into Opera.. But last night changed my heart towards it.. Since l left the venue till l got home, l could not stop talking to my friends with me in operatic way. Jane Ede truly inspired me and made me see the beauty in Opera. Such an amazing powerful performance indeed, in overall. Congratulations to Producer Roman Berry, Director Dan Graham and the whole team for a wonderful gift of an intimate opera experience l have never had, for the last 54 years of my life..”
