Full cast announced for QUEEN AT THE OPERA and BERNSTEIN ON BROADWAY at Grange Park Opera
Today, The Grange Festival, (4 June - 6 July 2025), has announced the full cast for QUEEN OF THE OPERA (5, 8,19 June) and BERNSTEIN ON BROADWAY (26, 29 June), bringing together some of the greatest performers from Opera and the West End.
QUEEN OF THE OPERA is a one-of-a-kind concert marking 50 years of Queen’s legendary album A Night at the Opera, which introduced the world to Bohemian Rhapsody, and celebrates the connections between opera and the music of Queen and Freddie Mercury. Following two sell-out performances, an additional date has been added on 19 June.
West End and rock singers Jon Boydon (MAMMA MIA!); Peter Eldridge; Jenna Lee-James (FROZEN); and Rachael Wooding (WE WILL ROCK YOU), join multi-skilled opera singers Jordan Pitts (featured on France’s Got Talent ‘La France a un incroyable talent‘ as drag persona Creatine Price); Nikola Printz (San Francisco Opera, Opera Memphis); and Ann Toomey (Glyndebourne, Lyric Opera of Chicago) in an eclectic blending of repertoire which highlights the connections between these music genres. QUEEN AT THE OPERA is conducted by Edwin Outwater (5, 8 June) and Pete Harrison (19 June) and features the BBC Concert Orchestra.
BERNSTEIN ON BROADWAY presents thrilling selections from the great composer’s theatrical output, including WEST SIDE STORY, CANDIDE, ON THE TOWN and WONDERFUL TOWN.
Musical theatre stars Julian Ovenden (SOUTH PACIFIC), Elèna Gyasi (SIX), Gabriela Garcia (IN THE HEIGHTS), and Lewis Francis (MISS SAIGON) join opera singers Claudia Boyle (Opéra national de Paris, Royal Opera, Semperoper Dresden) and Trystan Llŷr Griffiths (Welsh National Opera, Opera North, Festival d’Aix-en-Provence). The concert features the Welsh National Opera Orchestra and The Grange Festival Chorus led by Grammy Award-winning conductor Karen Kamensek (Metropolitan Opera, Royal Opera, Semperoper Dresden).
