Manage episode 275458754 series 2813400
In our 11th Episode, Adam Robert Lewis sits down (virtually) with West End Star, Kelly Mathieson.
Originally from Ayr in Scotland, Kelly started singing at a young age. Through singing she discovered her love of Opera and then went on to study at the prestigious Royal College of Music in London.
Kelly reflects on her whirlwind journey and why she left the world of opera to make her West End debut playing Chrisitine Daaé in Phantom of the Opera, a role she always dreamed of playing but never though she would. From her early days of singing Christine’s words in her living room and dreaming of one day playing her. Kelly’s dream came true in 2017 landing the role in the shows 32nd year, a role she was still playing up until the closure of the West End due to Covid-19.
If Kelly's journey teaches us anything it's to work at your craft and go confidently in the direction of your dreams.
