READ THE WINNING REVIEWS FROM OUR YOUNG CRITICS AWARD COMPETITION

READ THIS GREAT REVIEW AT STAGE NOISE .... ' It's a good choice for young singers, therefore, and (at the performance I was at) soprano Eva Kong gives notice of a bright future as pert and bossy sister Gretel, while Eve Klein matches her vocally and in her performance as bratty younger brother Hansel.'  ... 'All in all, the production - intelligently and wittily directed by Christine Douglas, with the exceptional young Russell Ger commanding the company and the 19-piece orchestra from the pit - serves to underline the importance of Pacific Opera to opera in Sydney (and Australia). Without the dedication, expertise, skill-sharing and vision of Douglas and the professionals she gathers in to the company, the situation for young singers (and musicians) would be pretty damn dire.'
