Anna joins the orchestra of Opera North as guest principal for performances of The Cunning Little Vixen at Leeds Grand Theatre, the Theatre Royal, Nottingham, and the Theatre Royal, Newcastle.

All the world is in this forest

Be transported to the forest and follow the enchanting tale of Vixen Sharp Ears. Captured by a Forester as a young cub, Sharp Ears dreams of freedom and escapes to take on the world. As her mischief unfolds, all the creatures of the forest come to life and rebellious hens, delicate dragonflies and playful squirrels help her on her journey.

This bittersweet fairy tale is an emotional journey reflecting on the nature of life, the cycle of birth and death and the connection between the human and animal worlds. Janáček’s playful folk-infused melodies burst with energy, as Director Sir David Pountney returns to charm audiences with this celebrated classic.

Anna takes part in the perfomances on 4th February and 3rd March in Leeds; 14th and 15th March in Nottingham; and 21st and 22nd March in Newcastle.
