A 12 year-old boy got booed last night at Covent Garden
NewsThere is growing outrage at the incident during last night’s performance of Handel’s Alcina at Covent Garden when a man in the audience booed a 12 year-old boy who was singing the sweetest of arias. The man shouted ‘rubbish!’
He was neither evicted nor sanctioned. The ROH needs to respond to this, and fast.
The boy singer is Malakai M Bayoh, a pupil at Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School, a state comprehensive school in West London. He has previously appeared at the ROH in The Magic Flute.
The booer derseves to be named and shamed.
UPDATE: The booer gets banned
2nd UPDATE: How the booer got frozen out
