Suzanne Chaundy is one of Australia's most in-demand directors of opera. Last year, she had the triumph of a lifetime with her direction of opera's most daunting challenge: Wagner's Ring Cycle. Now she's back with another big opera, Lucia di Lammermoor at the Melbourne Opera. So, what does it take to direct an opera?
Also, in Lose to Win, which opens soon at Belvoir Street Theatre, Mandela Mathia recounts his extraordinary journey from displacement in war-torn South Sudan to becoming an Australian and an accomplished actor, and opera singer David Hobson and comedian Colin Lane hit the road for a six-month tour of their show, In Tails.
