Freelance opera singer Adam Gilbert 'drops everything' to race from west Wales to Sussex.
"It was one of those evenings," said Glyndebourne's artistic director Stephen Langridge.He said operas normally have just one understudy, but with Covid infections still around and the fact The Wreckers is known to very few singers, he decided to get the "extra insurance"."When it was clear he wouldn't make it we chartered the helicopter to pick him up.
"The promo beneath our name is 'no ordinary opera' which can be hard to live up to sometimes, but [last night] was certainly not ordinary, not one to forget." He said the rail strike meant many audience members had spent hours driving to the show, so cancelling was "not an option". "So nobody questioned [the helicopter charter], nobody got out their calculators, we said 'we just have to do it'.
