Story
EVERY £5 DONATED GIVES YOU TO A CHANCE TO WIN A VIP NIGHT AT ONE OF THE PERFORMANCES!*
*Prize worth more than £50
Your name will be entered into a draw to win 2 'blue seat' tickets on the front row of the bleachers, with a pre-show and interval drink thrown in. The choice of night is yours!
This will be a major operatic production at the lovely little theatre at Haddo House in Aberdeenshire with a chorus of local people alongside professional soloists, orchestra and production team.
Haddo House has a 70 year history of similar productions and prides itself in giving local people of all abilities, ages and backgrounds the chance to become involved in opera working alongside professionals.
They also give students training to become professional singers at the Royal Conservatoire of Music the opportunity to appear in a fully staged production.
Funding is badly needed to give them this opportunity once again.
Producer and Chorus master Alice Dennis is due to retire and this is her farewell project for Haddo House Choral & Operatic Society. Every pound she can raise will be very gratefully received.
La Traviata - by Giuseppi Verdi

Chorus director/producer - Alice Dennis
Violetta - Máire Flavin
