Brilliant #MButterfly last night from #Huangruo@BarbicanCentre Pulsating score, fab singing from all involved with great ESEA representation & a fascinating subversion of the original Butterfly story. #Newopera#MButterfly

So moved to see a stage full of fantastic British East & South-East Asian opera singers tonight in #Grimebornturandot - a first in the UK! A brilliant, thought-provoking show, proud to have supported it through @BeatsOrg & excited to see more of this #Representation @_ellandar
