Huge congratulations to MGGS alumna Katie Bird!

We are beyond thrilled to hear that soprano Katie Bird will be taking on the iconic role of Maria in Opera North’s upcoming revival of The Sound of Music at Leeds Grand Theatre! 

It feels like only yesterday that Katie was back with us at MGGS for Speech Day in December. She was such an inspiration as our guest speaker, encouraging our students to follow their dreams, and she moved us all when she performed Butterfly’s aria, ‘Un bel dì, vedremo’ (‘One fine day’) from G Puccini’s Madama Butterfly – a moment we won’t forget! 

We couldn’t be prouder to see her lead this incredible production. We know she will be an absolutely wonderful Maria!
