Suzanne directs operas, runs RDEAP for Melbourne Opera, and directs text-based theatre and outdoor entertainment. In 2021 she commenced her first Ring Cycle.
About to take flight again after 35 years to the day, Barry Conyngham’s Fly is about to get stage time again @Fortyfivedownstairs after 35 years. Very happy that Melbourne’s @LyricOperaMelb is bringing it back.
Presenting their fourth Wagner opera in as many years, with The Flying Dutchman @MelbourneOpera again scales the heights in regard to production, cast and music. My review: wp.me/p261pj-2n8
The local opera scene in Melbourne would be so undernourished without the hard work and talent @MelbourneOpera combine in bringing the art form to so many. They deserve recognition...and some government funding wouldn’t go astray.
Melbourne Opera has been honoured with 8 commendations in the 4th annual OperaChaser Awards -

A preview of a new Aussie musical took fab form tonight. Under Suzanne Chaundy’s direction, The Dressmaker became a beautifully detailed story full of quirkiness, touches of poignancy, a variety of musical moods and a great cast. Until 26th Oct. @MonashUni’s Alexander Theatre.
Pretty-voiced Hester Van Vyver glammed the stage with poise and colour as the dressmaker Tilly. Sue Ingleton’s outrageous and uncouth Molly was a show stealer and Josh Gardiner impressed big time as Barney. Then again, there were many more names in Dungatar that did as well.
Ninety-four years young, the Herald Sun Aria is entering “a whole new era” as Melbourne Opera signs on as an official partner for the next five years!
