Join the Spark Rehearsal Gallery

As the world premiere of Spark approaches, the rehearsal room is buzzing with activity, and visitors will be able to see the cast, including Hugo Herman-Wilson and members of Glyndebourne Youth Opera, fine-tuning their performances. • The 'Monster Wall', a creative project born from early workshops, will be on display, showcasing the inspiration behind the opera. • Photographer Richard Hubert Smith has been capturing the sparks flying in the rehearsal room, and his work will offer a glimpse into the production's development. • The talented team behind Spark, including composer Lucy Armstrong, librettist Olivia Bell, and director Fiona Dunn, have been working tirelessly to bring this new youth opera to life.
