Alan Borthwick
Biography taken from 2006 (The Grand Duke) programme: Alan Borthwick has sung leading tenor roles in operas ranging from Poulenc to Puccini as guest artiste for companies throughout Scotland. He is the only singer ever to have performed all the tenor roles in Sullivan operas - including those written without Gilbert - and he has recorded many of these roles for leading record companies. Alan is now in great demand as a professional director and next week he will be back in this very theatre directing West Side Story. Last December his own company presented two Lionel Monckton operettas in St. Andrew’s & St. George’s, receiving excellent notices and raising over £500 for charity. Alan holds a first-class honours degree in Mathematics and Natural Philosophy and his full-time job is Development Officer in East Lothian’s Department of Education and Children’s Services. In his “spare” time he lectures in Mathematics for the Open University and in this role he has recorded a series of mathematical videos with the BBC. Other work for the BBC includes the setting of questions for a series of musical-theatre quizzes. Performing Credits:
