As a born and bred Londoner, English National Opera has always been a very special home for me. I was also lucky enough to perform London Coliseum on many occasions with the warmest and most talented people! Regressive cuts made by Arts Council England are a national disgrace. #chooseopera #loveENO

The Arts Council England announced cuts to our opera family last week and it would appear to us that there was both a lack of transparency and clear strategy in the decision process. 1/3

Important debate yesterday on supporting UK artists and culture in which I concentrated on the English National Opera. What ACE is proposing, on the most questionable evidence base, isn't a relocation, but the killing off of the ENO. 300 skilled, world-admired people would lose their jobs. 1/2

One year's reprieve, but for the ENO to meaningfully deliver on the Government’s levelling-up agenda, ACE needs to invest in the organisation at an appropriate level going forward. #LoveENO theguardian.com/music/2023/jan…
