The Stage
​
"…Welsh National Opera has got itself a hit!"
Theatre in Wales
Orfeo & Euridice
Scottish Opera Young Company
"The inventive staging used to full advantage, breaking the fourth wall by forcing the audience to become part of the performance... the storytelling felt seamless – told as concisely and precisely as possible.
You couldn’t look away for fear of missing something.
It was easy to forget, and indeed I didn’t give it a thought throughout, that this was the Scottish Opera Young Company on stage, and that tells you all you need to know. Suffice to say, it appears that the future of Scottish Opera is in safe hands."

Emperor of Atlantis
Royal Conservatoire of Scotland
"Directed by Caroline Clegg, the Emperor of Atlantis is supposed to be edgy and disturbing, and this production captured the unsettling parallels perfectly, allowing us to take our own conclusions away."

"The sets were very effective and the staging was excellent…two very creative productions of very challenging operas. An evening to remember, indeed better than many an evening I have spent in international opera houses."
