👭❤️ A Heartfelt Curtain Call ❤️👭

As we relax into the final week of "Little Women" at the , I'm filled with gratitude and awe. Not only is every seat filled – a testament to the story's timeless allure – but as the wig, hair, and makeup artist behind the scenes, I've witnessed firsthand the magic that unfolds both onstage and off. 🍂📚

Though my role may seem small in the grand tapestry of production, the journey has been nothing short of transformative. From styling the March sisters' locks to ensuring each character's look resonated with their essence, it's been a privilege to add to the visual storytelling of this beloved classic. 💇‍♀️💄

To our incredible audience, your enthusiasm has sold out the theatre – a dream come true for all of us involved. Your support has been the greatest accolade, and I'm humbled to have played a part in bringing this story to life. 💖

Swipe left for a glimpse of our best bits ➡️. To those lucky enough to have snagged a ticket, prepare for an unforgettable experience. And to everyone who's been a part of this journey – from the cast and crew to each member of our cherished audience – thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to step into the world of the March Family with you.

Let's make this final week a celebration of art, storytelling, and the timeless tale of "Little Women." Here's to the enduring power of beauty, both seen and unseen. 🎭💖

Love how the artwork with the new cast of Agreement turned out.

I have loved playing a part in this production and the new promo shots. Unfortunately I wont be working on the new run as I'll be in St Louis for another show during the run.

Wishing all the cast the best for their new run in Belfast and New York.

Playing to over 10,000 audience members in a sold-out run in 2023, is back with brand new artwork. With some returning cast members and some new faces, our sensational new images are worthy of this newly sold-out and limited three-week run at the Lyric Theatre before it heads to New York's Irish Arts Center.

Another show in Northern Ireland Opera Salon Series is heading to The Playhouse in Derry.

Your place to play in Derry - Londonderry The Playhouse is one of the most dynamic and creative Arts Centres in Northern Ireland!

A gorgeous show coming up from Northern Ireland Opera at The Grand Opera House in Belfast next month.

Tonight at the MAC 😍

Sea Wrack - N.I. Opera 'Seawrack' is a staged concert in the round featuring the music of composers Balfe, Harty and Wallace as part of NI Opera's Salon Series

Not long now until our exciting 'Salon Series' returns, starting with Mary McCabe performing Poulenc's 'La Voix Humaine' with David Quigley Pianist at The MAC on October 19th.

This is a incredible, gripping, one-woman opera, created in the late 1950s, where we watch a woman on the phone to her lover, eavesdropping as her life implodes over 50 minutes. It was based on a play by Jean Cocteau and has been the inspiration for many other varied performances across different artforms, including 'Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown' by Pedro Almodovar.

Book a ticket and come and try something different with us this month - each of the Salon Series events explores a different type of vocal music and they'll all be popping up at The MAC and at Playhouse Derry through the next few months.
