Two young lady students, Marchesita (Cheryl Aughton) and Lamparilla (Margaret McQuale), in the scene from 'El Barberillo de Lavapiés'.

Now joined by a male student, Paloma (Steve Harrison).

Here's Don Alvaro (Fan Chong Kong) from the scene from 'La Forza del Destino', adopting a fairly typical tenor pose.

In the scene from La Duena. The nun is Dona Clara (Jill House) and the cross-dresser is Dona Luisa (Suzanne Lowry).

Here's the first entrance of Sancho Panza (David Farley) and Don Quixote (Timothy Tomkins). In this instance it is in the scene from Telemann's 'Don Quichotte auf der Hochzeit des Camacho'.

Don Quixote adopts a familiar pose, in Boismortier's 'Don Quichotte chez La Duchese'. In the corner is a peasant girl (Josephine Firth) who's been teased by the other peasants.

This is from the bridesmaids' chorus at the end of the scene from Mendelssohn's 'Die Hochzeit des Camacho'.

Don Quixote is looking miserable, after his proposal to Dulcinea (Margaret McQuaile) is denied.

Don José (Fan Chong Kong) has received a flower from Carmen.

But his previous girlfriend, Micaëla, appear with a message from his mother.

In the second scene from 'Goyescas' by Granados, Fernando (Fan Chong Kong) and Rosario (Lina Johnsson) are circling each other.

This is from the same section with the other cast. This time Rosario is played by Heather Exley.

Lots of foot-stamping, clapping and skirt-swishing but no castanets.
This is from the opening of the second scene from Manuel de Falla's 'La Vida Breve'. It is the final scene of the piece, the wedding of Paco and Carmela.

Salud, gypsy gril and the former partner of Paco, is singing about her unfaithful partner. Fernando is still hanging around from the previous scene and appears to be not at all interested.

Switching to the opposite cast. Salud here is being played by Suzanne Lowry.

Many operas end like this. Salud draw out a dagger.....

and stabs herself. Sarvaor, Salud's uncle, (Nigel Thompson) grieves prior to paralysing everybody (?)

I do not appear in any of the previous photographs as I took all them. So here are some photos of me offstage in my various guises.

Here is my barman outfit for the first scene from 'Goyescas' . I did look a bit too much like a cowboy.

Here I am as the Marchese di Calatrava (from the scene from 'La Forza del Destino').

Here I am as Merlin in the first scene from 'Don Quichotte chez La Duchese'.

Here I am in my final outfit as Montesinos in the second scene from 'Don Quichotte chez La Duchese'.

Here are some Spanish gentlemen (Steve Harrison, David Farley, Tim Tomkins and Fan Chong Kong).

Here is the other Don Quixote (Nigel Thompson).

Some random Spanish ladies (Jo Firth and Charissa Hutchins).

Some more respectable ladies who appeared in the first scene from 'La Vida Breve' (Cheryl Aughton and Anna Creer).

Has someone died recently?

The musical Director (Carlos Aransay) is surrounded by lots of Spanish ladies (Lina Johnsson, Mary Grindley, Heather Exley, Suzanne Lowry, Sumiko Okada and Cheryl Augton).
