Danes poach Covent Garden director
mainThe Copenhagen Opera Festival has named Amy Lane as artistic director.
She’s head staff director at Covent Garden, the person responsible for reviving Kasper Holten’s productions.
She’s also director of the Ring cycle at Longborough and very pro-EU.
Another Brexit loss.
She looks nice and very competent. I wish her well there. Watch as all Bristish artistic talent is lured away from Brexit Island. A disgrace the whole thing. I wish her well and look forward to seeing Opéra in Loughborough for the first time. I did my PGCE in sport admin there. Glad to see she is Pro EU. Good for EU
Norman, I’m guessing that your auto-correct has done it worse. I’m assuming you meant Longborough, not Loughborough?
Longborough.
Loughborough? Longborough, perhaps
Or, equally, proof that Brexit is having little practical impact on the ability of British talent to work on the continent.
Matter of perspective, innit?
Fuck off
This is a terrible loss for the UK. Talented, lovely and respected by all who came across her.
I expect we will manage somehow
Incidentally, I was amazed to learn that she is very pro-EU. So unusual in the arts establishment.
