ENO instals a competent deputy
mainEnglish National Opera, which has been under ACE pressure to get its act together, has recruited Louise Jeffreys as deputy chair.
Jeffreys, who has just stepped down as artistic director of the Barbican Centre, will also chair ENO’s artistic committee.
Before spending 20 years at the Barbican, she was Administrative Director at the Nottingham Playhouse, Head of Production at Bayerische Staatsoper, Munich, and Technical Director at the English National Opera.
She knows the ropes.
Excellent appointment who will find much support within the company. But being Deputy to a mountebank won’t be easy.
Looks as if she’s got a rope around her neck too! LOL!
She’s also been on the ENO Board since 2016 so she was actually recruited quite a long time ago!!
