Destination: ‘Old Hag’

A tale of life backstage before going on stage. Told by witches. With music.

“I was awed by your beautiful singing voices!”

Sarah Thurstan, Steering Group of Folkestone Live! 2024

“this will make a great diversion at festivals of drama and indeed music and opera. Bis!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bath Fringe 2024

“A clever show that breaks down barriers to opera as an art form.”

Backstage Bristol

Welcome to Backstage!

Here, you will find the ‘Ladies of the Chorus’ getting ready for opening night of Verdi’s Macbetto.

If you’re a regular opera-goer in this area, you’ll have seen them before as Cigarette Girls, Geishas, and Nuns – this time, they are the Witches!*

Despite their numerous appearances over the years, would you recognise them out on the high street? Or know their names if you ever met them? Who really are the people you only seem to see ‘upstage’?

*There are only 3 Witches due to budgetary constraints

Possibly the world’s first ‘Sit-Op-Com’?!

Set in a theatre broom cupboard, next to the building’s only toilet, Destination: ‘Old Hag’ draws on the ladies’ 20+ years in the world of opera, charting their ups and downs over one-act with humour, heart, and a sprinkling of live opera singing.

Destination: ‘Old Hag’ was created and written by Samantha Houston, Bridget Hardy and Penny Rossano. It stars Bridget Hardy, Penny Rossano and Samantha Houston – three opera singers with more years’ stage experience than they care to mention …
