On 12th November 2023, we played Puccini’s magnificent La Bohème - in a day!
A fabulous cast of singers worked alongside the Horizon Orchestra, under the baton of Benjamin Hamilton, at the Mulryan Centre for Dance (English National Ballet).

Opera In A Day — Q&A with Benjamin Hamilton (DEBUT at Bishopsgate Institute 2023)

Lizzie (DEBUT’s founder) and Benjamin cut their teeth together at the University of Warwick (where they met), working on productions of Figaro, Bohème, Hansel and Gretel and Flute. We felt that this was something that was needed for emerging professional musicians, and a great way to get the wider community involved too.
