Description

Wagner turned up to 11! A hilarious dive into the ridiculous world of opera and life as a Valkyrie and Rheinmaiden, peppered with hits from Puccini and Verdi from Berlin’s thrilling opera-singing comedian. How do you tell your parents you're moving to Vienna to be a Valkyrie? What's it like to audition for the biggest opera houses in Europe? Steph's sung at Carnegie Hall and the Berlin Konzerthaus and is an in-demand English-language comedian in Germany. An afternoon delight: the endorphin release of great comedy with the visceral awe of hearing a dramatic soprano.

An extremely talented performer who managed to take the fear out of Opera and infuse her love to the audience. Well worth a trip off the beaten track.

Never thought of combining stand up comedy with Opera, but Steph pulls it off beautifully! We had a ton of laughs, learned a bit about opera, and, while I remain unlikely to ever attend the opera, Steph’s show was a hoot!

FANTASTIC! To take opera, something that we are all taught is uptight, and proper, and make it funny, casual and interactive, while giving beautiful, top-notch opera vocals, is something people shouldn’t miss. Treat yourself to this light hearted, amazing show! You will not regret it!

Saw this show yesterday and loved it! I have never been to a full opera and thought Steph brought her love of opera to life. Her fantastic voice was mesmerising. Well done Steph - we will definitely go to an opera now!!

An absolute hidden gem of the fringe! I knew nothing about opera and thoroughly enjoyed the show. Steph's voice and personality were incredible - an excellent blend of comedy and opera!
