Cast

The cast of A Kind Man is below. Some are familiar from New Palace Opera performances, Rebecca and Zoe sang in our recent Lucretia, and we are very happy to welcome our new singers on board.

Tommy Carr: Gerrit Paul Groen

Eve, his wife: Rebecca Afonwy-Jones*

Miriam, her sister: Lizzie Holmes

Arthur, Miriam's ten year-old son: TBC

Doctor McElvey: Nicholas Morris*

Henry Arnold , a young man: Kieran White

Daphne Arnold, Henry's sick mother: Zoe South

We have three understudies: soprano parts, Nina Bennet; tenor parts, Robin Whitehouse; and bass parts, Julian Debreuil.

The London Concertante will be conducted by Jonathan Finney.

*Both Rebecca and Nicholas were unable to perform in the performances at Hoxton Hall, as they were struck by the Covid virus at the close of rehearsals.

We were very fortunate that, in the event, their roles were sung by for Eve: Jess Gillingwater and Philippa Boyle, and for Doctor McElvey: Gerard Delrez.
