Reviews

Orpheus in the Underworld, RCM

“There’s often an early seasonal treat to be had from the various music colleges’ end-of-term operas. Louise Bakker’s RCM production of Offenbach’s Orpheus in the Underworld delivered multicoloured silliness with an energetic, fresh-sounding cast” 

– Richard Bratby, The Spectator. Full review available here. 


“ Bakker’s production is a colourful, chaotic, cultural rag-bag – but one which is fast and funny, boisterous and bawdy, and witty without too sharp an edge... Bakker and the terrific ensemble cast surely play it just as Offenbach intended” 

– Claire Seymour, Opera Today. Full review available here.

Saul, Richmond Opera

"Richmond Opera took on a weighty project with this lengthy opera, and director Louise Bakker used this biblical material with great skill.  Set and costume design [also by Louise Bakker] were immaculate.   Saul is a production one won’t forget. "

- Heather Moulson, Mark Aspen. Full review available here.
