Goodness me - time flies when you're having fun! It seems only yesterday that I was writing about starting La Bohème - and now it's all over...
The whole process was a huge whirlwind, with 8 performances in 3 weeks, and it was only two months from first music call to the final curtain - hence "resurfacing"!
I am, however, excited to be so close to opening night of Les Contes d'Hoffmann already (next week!), and it's certainly gone some way to distracting me from what could have been crushing post-show blues...
If you are interested in a bit of the social media work we did on Bohème, please do have a look at the following. There's so much that I can't possibly share it all, but if you start with these links, you should be able to navigate your way to much more!
A 20-minute documentary on 'The making of La Bohème' - filmed for the 4-hour "Inside Opera: Live" event on Saturday 10th May.
A blog I wrote on 'my journey to La Bohème'
Opera North Tumblr site (including weekly blogs by me and John Savournin)
Live blog from a performance by the other cast (WELL worth a read - an hilarious, but touching account of a first experience of opera)
John and I (of weekly rehearsal diary fame) also did a live Twitter Q&A on Friday 25th May. Have a flick through some of the tweets here (search on the hastag #AskBoheme - not exhaustive, so have a look on our individual feeds)
That's it for now folks - see you on the other side of Hoffmann opening night!
