They have also been featured on the main stage in their own right, in a gala evening on the main stage of the Royal Opera House when they performed a new work, Out of the Ruins , by Charlotte Bray specially commissioned for the event. Since their debut performance in the Linbury Studio Theatre in May 2011, YOC have provided the children’s cast for numerous productions on the main stage including Carmen and Otello. ROH YOC was established following an extensive series of audition workshops involving hundreds of children, recruiting from a broad base in order to give opportunities to everyone, irrespective of whether they had previous experience of or interest in opera. Under their tenure, the company was made up of around fifty 9-13 year old children. Together with Karen Gillingham, Suzi was joint artistic director of The Royal Opera House’s Youth Opera Company (ROH YOC) from 2009 until 2017.
