Jacqui’s well-known as a director of opera, and is also much in demand for her creative input into choral and orchestral concerts requiring staging or semi-staging.
She was working with Orchestra Wellington just last week for Saturday’s ‘Heroes and Villains’ concert for young people.
She’s also Assistant Director for NZ Opera’s recent production of The Barber of Seville.
David Morriss caught up with her to talk about her work and what the Fellowship involves.
