After the success of Bloom Britannia, Barefoot Opera returns to St Mary in the Castle to tell the tale of Cinderella – with added bling. Erica Smith sings the praises of this local company that brings high opera to the streets of Hastings.
MSL Discover and Barefoot Opera are working on a special pop-up street performance event called Sun Shall Rise. It will take place during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee weekend on Saturday 4 June in Hastings town centre.
Premiere of the new people’s opera, Bloom Britannia will take place in Hastings this autumn. Telling the story of one extraordinary day in the life of a seaside town, Bloom Britannia brings together a cast of people from the towns of Hastings, St Leonards-on-Sea and Bexhill, performing on stage alongside top professional singers and a live band. Experience a hilarious, raucous, challenging, action-packed, thrilling production celebrating the joy of singing and music to bring our communities together. HOT’s Zelly Restorick went along to the cast’s last rehearsal for the summer.
It’s August – it’s CRAZY! The day is set for a 22 degree high in Hastings with bright sunshine and a light breeze. Lobsterliciously – spread the Lobster Love with LEKIDDO – Lord of The Lobsters! Joyous uplifting pop moves and catchy tunes, Chris Cormack investigates how much fun Jenny Miller’s Barefoot Opera can bring you and your kids.
